Accompanied by a booklet and handout
The aggressive guys are the heros and they get rewarded...the only way to reduce aggressive behaviour is to let kids see the direct consequences so that there is less capacity to want to mirror or copy the behaviour

They are a wonderful teaching tool and thus have a huge power for good ,however if all of the practice /reward is voile then there is a problem
Parents should limit media time
2-11 An hour or Two of free screen time ........that is not educationally set
Speaking is more important and watching too much screen time is counterproductive
Amount and content must be appropriate
