Gabby Logan expressed deep sorrow when her daughter Lois shared a distressing experience of being bullied during her school years. Lois, now 20, faced challenges and issues due to bullying around the age of 11. Gabby recounted a poignant moment when Lois, considering a new school, was warned by a peer that she should avoid their group, reflecting Lois’s own awareness of the situation at a young age.
Reflecting on the past, Gabby revealed that Lois had been drawn to a group that caused problems, likely stemming from previous bullying experiences. As a parent, Gabby was devastated upon learning about Lois’s struggles, emphasizing the importance of open communication between parents and children in such situations.
Childhood psychologist Dr. Tara Proctor discussed the delicate balance parents face in responding to children’s reports of bullying, cautioning against immediately intervening unless it is a chronic issue. Dr. Proctor advised parents to empathize with their children, inquire about their emotions, and provide guidance on navigating friendships, particularly dealing with inconsistent friends.
In a recent post on Instagram, Gabby shared her mixed emotions as she accompanied Lois to university, acknowledging the transition from a protective role to fostering independence. Gabby, who shares Lois and her twin brother Reuben with husband Kenny Logan, expressed pride and nostalgia as her daughter embarked on this new chapter in her life.
