If you’re experiencing bullying, there are steps you can take, even when it feels challenging.
Talk to someone you trust: Whether it’s a schoolmate, friend, parent, or teacher, reach out to an adult who can provide support. It’s their responsibility to help you.
Seek friends’ support: If you’re uncomfortable talking directly to the teacher, speak to a friend you trust and address the situation together.
Be assertive: Stand tall, look the bully in the eye, and use a clear voice to express that their behavior is unacceptable. Walking away and informing someone about the situation can be a crucial first step.
Remember that every bullying situation is unique, and there isn’t a one-size-fits-all solution. Don’t hesitate to share your experience with someone you trust—keeping it to yourself won’t help.
