Facts that adults don\u2019t tell you about bullying<\/h1>\n

– Communication doesn\u2019t work on bullies. Telling a bully they\u2019re making you feel bad is the wrong way to go. They want to make you feel bad. That\u2019s the point. <\/p>\n

– being kind to a bully doesn\u2019t always mean they\u2019ll stop. Sometimes it means they\u2019ll just use your kindness to manipulate you while still continuing to bully you. <\/p>\n

– not every bully has a sympathetically tragic home life. Sometimes people are just mean. Sometimes people just get off on hurting others. <\/p>\n

– on that note, a tough home life is a reason, not an excuse. You don\u2019t have to put up with bullying because somebody\u2019s life sucks, just like you don\u2019t have to let someone mug you because they\u2019re broke. <\/p>\n

– in order to forgive someone, they have to apologize first. If your bully has not apologized to you, you do not owe them anything. <\/p>\n

– getting bullied as a kid can still mess you up in adult life. Maybe kids grow out of being bullies, but the marks they left often don\u2019t go away. <\/p>\n

– there are ways to get people to stop bullying you, but they almost all involve being mean back. <\/p>\n

– as long as parents keep raising shitty bullying kids, there will be bullies. No amount of assemblies and hand-drawn posters will fix the problem. It\u2019s the parents\u2019 fault. <\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

– It\u2019s not your responsibility to fix your bully or to stop the abuse they send your way, but some adults sure will act like it is.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

– Many times (especially in the case of girls) your friends can be your bullies. This makes things even worse as these are people who know you and your intimate secrets and use them to their advantage. If your friends are bullies, don\u2019t take crap from them. Get new friends.\u00a0<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
