Reclaiming Our Kids: The Attachment Crisis Behind Bullying

Missed our live webinar with Dr. Deborah MacNamara? Watch the recording: Reclaiming Our Kids — The Attachment Crisis Behind Bullying.

Bullying is rising again and many parents are asking the same question: Why don’t traditional anti-bullying strategies seem to work?

On February 23, 2026, Abbotsford DPAC hosted a l live Zoom webinar, “Bullying: A New Approach for Parents,” featuring Dr. Deborah MacNamara, an expert in the relational-developmental approach.

If you missed it or want to revisit the conversation, the recording is now available until March 11.

In this session, Dr. MacNamara explores:

• Why consequences and anti-bullying programs often fall short

• The deeper emotional roots of bullying behavior

• How peer-oriented culture impacts children’s vulnerability and empathy

• What’s really happening beneath aggression and social cruelty

• The single most powerful protective factor in a child’s life

Rather than focusing only on stopping behaviors, this webinar helps parents understand the attachment dynamics that drive them. You’ll walk away with a clearer framework for responding to both the child who is bullied and the child who bullies and practical insight into how strong adult-child relationships create safety and resilience.

If you care about your child’s emotional health and want a more effective,

compassionate approach to bullying, we invite you to watch the recording.

Access webinar recording until Mar 11
