In your PowerPoint you could use clips from movies the kids might have seen that have bullying. You could have them observe the facial expressions of those being bullied and...See More

Mr Miller What can you do if you are being bullied?

You think you’re a good person and you don’t make anyone mad, at least not on purpose. So what do you do if you are bullied? Should you let it happen? Here are tips on what you can do if you are being bullied:

You think you’re a good person and you don’t make anyone mad, at least not on purpose. So what do you do if you are bullied? Should you let it happen? Here are tips on what you can do if you are being bullied:

Photo of a girl talking to an adultTell an adult. Many young women fear telling an adult because they don’t want to look like a snitch or seem weak. However, adults can help end the bullying. Also, it may make you feel better to tell an adult. Stand up for yourself. Believe it or not, this will help you gain respect from others. Practice what you might say to a bully with a friend, your mirror, or an adult. Practice saying it in a firm, confident voice. You may even encourage others to protect themselves from bullying, too. Tell the bully to stop. Calmly walk away. Believe in yourself and tell others how you feel and what you think. You will gain respect from others. Also, by leading the way and showing others that you can’t be bullied, you can help prevent bullying in the future. You can also encourage others to protect themselves from bullying. Do not fight back! It’s hard to do, but walk away from a bully and ignore them. If you give in to a bully and fight back, you could end up getting in trouble instead of the bully! If someone is hurting you physically, try to call for help or get away fast and get help from an adult. Lighten the air! Make a joke to lighten up the mood. Say something funny to distract the people involved. Make new friends and get involved. Making friends, and having interests and extracurricular activities, will make you feel better about yourself and the bullying situation. It will introduce you to people who share similar interests. When making friends, make sure you have positive friendships that are fun and free of bullying. Read more about making friends. Photo of teen girl smilingDon’t blame yourself. It’s important for you to know that it’s not your fault. No one deserves to be treated this way. If you’re being bullied, try to stop it either by yourself or with help from an adult. Be strong! Bullies like to upset people, particularly those who can’t stand up for themselves. Be in control so that the bully won’t feel in control. It’s important to feel confident and have good self-esteem. Even if you don’t feel it at the moment, acting like you do will help. You may find that you are pretty good at handling a bully after all, and the next time you won’t have to fake the confidence.

afraid for colleague

by marg

Mar 31, 2012

I'm worried for my colleague. There is a child with mental health issues at the school who has developed an unhealthy obsession with her. She has done nothing to this child, but he blames everything bad in his life on her. EVERYTHING from another teacher reprimanding him to problems outside school. This child is very large and is no longer on any m...See More

Mr Miller This rather depends on whether your child is scared because they are going to school for the first time, or whether they have been attending for some time and only just become scared to go.

In the first case, the key is to prepare the child as much as possible. Read them stories about children going to school on their first day, explain what school is for, and help your child to imagine a day at school. Make it re-assuring, but avoid going over the top and setting the child up for a massive disappointment! Above all NEVER look apprehensive yourself! Kids pick up on the feelings of their parents really quickly, and if you look like you are scared when they go to school, any sensible child will think school must be a really scary place.

If your child has suddenly become scared of school, when they were happy enough before, you really need to find out the reason. Don't jump to conclusions - it might be bullying, or it might be that there is now a big dog in the garden next to the school that wasn't there before. Children are often scared by things we don't even notice. So question your child, but don't suggest the answers you expect i.e. don't say "Why are you unhappy - is someone bullying you?" because you may get a "yes" that isn't actually the case. Instead, ask "Are you unhappy with school? What is it about school that you don't like?" Often the problem will be easy to sort out. You can ask the teacher to keep an eye out if there is bullying, or you can help your child if they are stuck with their school work. NEVER just try to brush the problem off - if your child is unhappy, it won't go away unless you help them, but don't take over either. If another child is the problem, suggest ways your child can cope - I've even supplied kids with insults they can throw back! Don't suggest that they actually fight though, as this can get way out of hand very quickly and should not be the first way to sort out a problem anyway. Above all, you must make sure your child keeps on attending. If they start to have days at home, the problems only increase.
