How to deal with bullies

Post by Rossy »

If you are being bullied by someone, the first thing you need to do is tell an adult about it.
Bullies want to feel satisfied by seeing you go through emotional torture, if you act like they don't exist they could get tired of bullying you and just let you be.
Protect yourself from bullies. Use routes that could avoid them. Do not give them a chance to bully you as they will do it given a chance.
Avoid walking alone. Most bullies are cowards at heart, the moment they see you with someone else they get scared and won't bully you.

That's easier said than done. Note, nobody likes a nark (tattle-tale). In that case, the bullying could increase - cause, well, as in a prison, there isn't a way to get away from them.

That works in places where they can be avoided, like say a certain neighborhood, sometimes.

I suspect that strategy doesn't work. Note, even if you try to ignore them, they keep rubbing it in.

These are great tips but I also think the best thing to do in to confront the problem and end it once and for all. You can do it by yourself but it's safer if you go with an adult or an authority person, after all you don't know how the bully is going to react. In the past I used to be bullied too and I ended it by confronting the problem. They stoped bothering and I felt better with myself after that...

This happened to me too and I can tell you, I did all the things @Pink_Turtle said and none worked. Since I was being bullied by a single person, I ended up physically confronting her (I've practiced martial arts since I was 7). I didn't hurt her too much or anything but the bullying stopped after that. The worst thing was, she bullied me for months and the one time I struck back, I was the one I got in trouble :roll:

In the past, I encountered multiple bullies who tried to exert their dominance over me. I think it's necessary to have friends in class.I did not fight back but I confronted the bully with my friends and we asked him why he was behaving in that manner. Well, it appears that the bully was actually doing it because he was kind of having trouble socialising.We invited him to play with us. As of today , the bully is now one of my long time friend. We need to consider that not all bullies are born that way. There are many external factors which contribute into forming bullish behaviour in individuals.

The best resort is to make parents aware of the bullying incidents . Kids must always be encouraged to share their problems with their parents. But this demands a daily quality time which is spent between the kids and the parents.

Moreover kids should have ether confidence that there parents will understand their problem and can help them in snapping out of it. An interference by a sensible adult can very well put an end to this bad practice.

I think the first step is to get in touch with authorities who can help you. And then get this sorted in front of them. This way you can set the direction for not getting bullied in future. Most of the bullies have some sort of support which they exploit. And you have to cut down their sources for the support through which they can have power over you. Most of the students have the counselors who can help in such situations. In case if teachers get bullied by others they can directly approach higher authorities.

hahaha that happens! but at least your bully stopped being an idiot with you. I didn't know martial arts I think if I knew them I would had done it -confront them- earlier :lol: . I didn't confront them physically but in words I wouldn't just watch them do it to me, I did mess a little with their heads, after all they were being jerks. Thanks good it never got physical because I've never been in a fight in my life :shock: I wouldn't know what to do.

I'm not sure if anti-bullying attempts (public awareness, anti-bullying signs) in American schools, or maybe in Asian schools also, actually work. Instead, they would probably just create a backlash of kids and adults saying society is "too sensitive". Anyway, how can you really change the fact that people practice projection, get off on being mean to others, and treat the subjective as objective? It seems to be a vital, though sinful, part of human nature.

I was bullied when I was in highschool. I know how it feels to be bullied, all I did was just continue and pretend nothings going on around me, I would act like I just don't see or pretend I don't hear them. They'll get tired of bullying you. I never spoke with them, or go their way. I would try my best to just avoid them. We're in highschool. We can't get away with this, I think this is really part of growing up. Even how many times we try to solve this problem, I don't think this will ever be solved. But sometimes it could get really way out of control and sometimes it could be a reason for one's life to end. We have to teach young ones to be more considerate with the feelings of others, try and make themselves or maybe put them in someone elses shoe to see how difficult it is to be bullied.
