Don’t even look

at them

Don’t Cry Don’t get angry Don’t show

them that you

are upset

Talk about it to

someone else

Write it down so

you don’t forget

to tell someone

Respond to the

Bully evenly

and firmly

More ways to stop

O If you are having a hard time feeling good

about yourself, explore ways to boost your

self-esteem.

O If you feel like you’re having trouble controlling

your feelings, especially anger, talk to a

school counselor about it.

Ask yourself these questions.

O Does it make you feel better to hurt other

people or take their things?

O Are you bigger and stronger than other

people your age? Do you sometimes use

your size and strength to get your way?
