Take A Stand: Bullying

Hey y'all!!! Sorry I haven't posted in a while! :) Today's topic Is Bullying :(  I know it's not a happy topic so I sorry but we need to raise awareness for this depressing way of life. I know what being bullied is like and your not alone. I want to post a list of things to look for in your friend and things to do if you see bullying or are being bullied. 


Signs to look for if you're friend is being bullied:

1) Sudden change change of interest in usual favorite activities
2) Anxious
3) Lack of confidence
4) Not eating normally
5) Threats or attempts of Suicide

*Remember if you see any of these signs repeatedly tell a adult you trust ,your parents,their parents,or a teacher*  

Things To Do when you see bullying:
 do and Don'ts


Care about others.

DO to help the victim.
  • Put your arm around the person being bullied, and walk away with them.
  • Give the victim ideas to solve the problem.
  • Invite the person to hang out with you and your friend
DON'T
  • Walk away without helping.
  • Watch the bullying without getting involved - watching bullying is like you are doing the bullying yourself.
  • Use your power in an aggressive way to stop the bullying - set a good example for others.
ASK A ADULT FOR HELP 

Show the person you care!

End Bullying by telling a ADULT don't gossip




IF you are being bullied:

Tell a adult and DON'T suffer in silence 


Raise awareness from bullying :) Take a stand
