The Dreaded Bus Ride Home

The school bus.
A bullying hot spot around the world.
I ride the bus almost everyday to and from school.
It's a peaceful ride, sometimes.
The worst part is the mean words.
Kids two grades younger then me shouting words I would never dare to say.
Boys and girls in my grade calling each other bad words.
It's terrible and the bus driver never seems to notice.

Looks Don't Matter

Cheap clothes, boots bought off eBay, some excuses bullies give themselves to bully you.
I'm not telling you to speed out to the nearest strip mall and max out your mom's credit card.
I'm telling you looks don't matter.
So wear your hand-me-down jeans with pride, and don't let bullies hurt you.

The Bystander and their Job

There are many ways to stand up to bullies.

This one is the easiest yet hardest one. Walk up to the bully and say, "That's really mean, you shouldn't do that." I call that strategy the "That's really mean, you shouldn't do that" Strategy.

Okay, so, on the bully quiz did you find out you have witnessed bullying? If you have you've got to speak up. Do you think the person getting bullied will say that the bully is being mean? No, really, no. You have GOT to talk to the bully or an adult about what he or she is doing. Sometimes, sadly, adults say, "I'll talk to them" but they don't. That's sort of bullying in it's self. Do you think that's bullying?

A bystander or witness stands up for a victim and confronts a bully. If you are confident you are less likely to be bullied. Kids who are surrounded by kids don't tend to be bullied. Another good reason to hang out with friends!
Okay, let's just say that the bystanders have
THE BIGGEST JOB OF ALL.
Have you ever been a bystander? Did you stand up to the bully?

NO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Saying no may be the best way to fix bullying but it could be one of the worst ways to bully. Saying no to a bully means you have guts. A bully may say "No, you can't come to my party." That's mean, but bullies will be bullies. Well, until you say no. When a bully is smashing your head against a locker begging you for your lunch money you could just say "no". Which one do you think is more effective: the bully saying no, or the victim saying no. Tell me what you think by commenting.
