EXAMPLE: Victim has raced the bully in track, the victim won. "You just won because you cheated! I'm going to get you, you cheating loser! You'll be sorry you cheated!" bully says. The victim ignores.

Stand up to bullies!
When someone bullies you, you must stand up for yourself. You must not let them make you feel sad. However, when you get angry at the bully/bullies, you can't fight back. If you snap back at the bullies, or punch them back, then you are bullying too. You have to take their power away, their power to control people by fear. Don't show them you are sad, because bullies like seeing your reaction. Tell them you are not affected by their comment or ignore them.

You all are so right! Bullies are actually usually quite insecure and try to exert power over others in order to feel stronger, and gain stature in their social structure. They thrive on the reactions of their victims and/or the greater community. Not reacting is the most effective method of suppressing bullying behavior. Sadly, this sometimes infuriate bullies as well. Regardless, you are on the right track & Good luck on your project!
