Episode 22 of Good Morning Rancho is a much more serious topic that we wanted to tackle, especially with the new school year starting. Bullying and cyberbullying continues to be a major problem, not just with kids but also with adults. We wanted to talk to Dr. Randy Gilchrist who has a Doctor of Psychology and a Master of Science in Family and Human Development that specializes in marriage and family therapy. Dr. Gilchrist provides insights on how to identify if your child is being bullied, in a depressive state or possibly a bully themselves. This is meant to be an informative episode, not to highlight any business. S side note on production, we were testing out a green screen on the intro and outro and had some issues with the audio, but all the important parts are clear.
