Bullying Tips for Kids

 
TIPS FOR KIDS REGARDING CYBERBULLYING:
1. Don't give people you don't know your cell phone number, instant messaging 
name, or email address.
2. If you are being harassed online, log out of the site and tell an adult 
you trust.
3. If you are being bullied through email or instant messaging, block the 
sender from being able to send email to you.  Print a copy of the email as 
evidence and tell your principal.
4. If the bullying includes physical threats, notify the police.
5. If you see someone bully another person online, tell them you don't think 
it's cool.

S- Stay away from anyone or any group of kids who don't like you or are mean 
to others.
T- Tell someone you trust if you are being bullied.
A- Avoid unsupervised areas of the school.
M- Make friends at school and stick together.

-Look the bully in the eye, and confidently tell him/her to stop
-Report the bullying to a trusted adult who you know takes bullying seriously
-Use humor/make a joke (but don't make a joke about the bully or it may 
intensify the situation)

friends; there is safety in numbers.
