If You Are A Kid Of Any Age Who Is Being Bullied:
Don’t Get Angry!
When you’re being bullied your first reaction is to get angry with the person who is bullying you. Do you know that’s exactly what the bully wants you to do? Bullies want control – over you and your feelings. Getting angry will not solve the situation … it will only make it worse! And getting angry will make the bully feel even more powerful.
Getting Physical Or Bullying Back DOES NOT Work!
Don’t get push, hit, kick or punch your bully. It makes matters worse.
Be Courageous!
Stand up for yourself! Never start a discussion or argue with a bully, even if you've got a great line. You just want to get them off your back, not make them angry.
Grow Your Circle of Friends!
If a bully is talking about you, remind yourself about all of your good qualities. Do things that you are good at. Try something new; you may discover a talent you never knew you had. Join clubs or sports teams. This gives you a wider range of interests and by growing your circle of friends you have a larger group of peers and more positive people to spend time with.Talk to others! It is way cooler to tell someone than lose sleep or get depressed over someone's stupid behavior! Talk to someone!
