I bought this book after listening to the author on The Holderness Family podcast. The book is geared toward middle and high school students. I love his approach to combat bullying. It focuses on what the intended victim can do to help themselves not be a target. He shares wonderful stories and experiences that connect with the reader.

VictimProof provides great insights and strategies for students. Tom Thelen gets it because he experienced it and now shares concepts with students to "Be the Change"!
5.0 out of 5 stars Victim Proof is for Everyone
I have used Victim Proof as a part of my Middle School curriculum for the past 3-4 years and the message that Tom brings from his personal experience not only connects with students on a personal level, but inspires students to change for the better. I also believe the life lessons of respect, treating others as you want to be treated, honesty, and integrity are timeless and are shown to work in the "real world' we live in through Victim Proof. Victim Proof also teaches everyone, the young and the older, how to not let yourself become a victim of all types of bullying-not just at school. Victim Proof gives you the power to change because you know you are not facing the "bully" alone any longer and it also gives you the tools to protect yourself when you put them in place in your life. There is power in putting these principles to use. I know because I was once the victim of a bully and now I am also "Victim Proof".

There are some nice anecdotal stories but it basically is pointing the reader to subscribe to his program. Much better comprehensive books are available on bullying. Tom is out there educating the community about the long term effects of bullying and I applaud his efforts.
5.0 out of 5 stars Great book
I'm using my moms acount to write this. I got this book after listening to Tom Thelon talk at the Indiana state 4-h roundup convention. I have just recently finished reading it and it is a every helpful book. I love how it tells true life stories and how much detail and information you can get from it. I live in a small town and the bulling is pretty bad right now but with this book I truly believe it could stop. I have been bullied myself and I don't mean to but I have bullied others. With this book I understand why people become bullies and why they are the way they are. I truly think this is worth your money to spend. BE THE CHANGE!!!!
5.0 out of 5 stars A much-needed fresh perspective on bullying
I wish I could give every middle and high school student a copy of this book (and their parents, too). Tom Thelen's "Victimproof" is exactly what the dialogue on bullying has been missing. Tom's message of empowering bullied students to stand up for themselves and "be the change" is in stark contrast to the weak approaches that have been taken to bullying, and Tom has an equally powerful message for students who feel victimized, but actually may be committing bullying themselves without realizing it. I think Tom is on to something special, and this book not only helped me understand how to help students who have been bullied - it changed my perspective on life, too.
5.0 out of 5 stars Helpful Book
I recieved this book as a gift about a year ago, read it, and I have let each of my teenage children read it. Victimproof is a great book for youth who are struggling with bullying. I appreciate the fact that Tom Thelen encourages youth to be resilient and not become a victim of someone elses struggle. Five stars, a great read that keeps your attention and helps parents and youth navigate through the struggle of bullying.
2.0 out of 5 stars Just ehhhh
The book is a sales pitch to buy the Tom Thelan package which includes several videos poorly filmed in a basement. I do believe Thelan’s heart is in the right place but this book has copious amounts of sentence structure errors and his anecdotes aren’t really useful for kids who’ve actually experienced bullying. In my opinion, as a seasoned teacher, Tom was picked on and might have been a jerk, but he was neither a bully nor a victim of bullying. This has all the earmarks of a piece of religious dogma disguised to be used in the public school setting. Students hate the book, teachers hate the book, but it’s a quick read with only 120-140 pages.
You need to buy something else to go with the book!
The book sounded great, until you realize you have to purchase videos ($49.99 - over $200) to watch to do some work activities.
