All of us have been bullied, but being bullied due to a medical condition that already impacts social functions takes bullying to a whole new level.

If you or your kiddo has ever been bullied because of food allergy, this episode is a must listen. My friend and colleague Jodi Shroba, CPNP, from Children's Mercy Kansas City Food Allergy Center, will be discuss:

• What does bullying look like when a kiddo's food allergy is part of the bullying?
• What should parents do if their kiddo is being bullied?
• How should parents handle bullying when they themselves are the ones targeted?

Jodi recently presented on food allergy and bullying at the AAAAI 2021 conference. You are not going to want to miss this discussion!
