Bullying has been around for ages, but it
seems to have gotten worse. The bullies have more ways to taunt people with
that Internet. We need to find a better way to deal with these bullies because
what we're doing isn't working.
Parents need to talk to their kids about
bullying and being bullied. It's time to stand up to bullies, but not with your
fists. Defend yourself with your brain. Teach your kids to be defiant and
confident. Bullies pick on kids that appear weak, not ones that are confident.
Bullies can be racist, they can be young
or old, and male or female. They are small-minded, so use your mind to defeat
them.
Mom told me bullies are jealous that's why
they pick on others. She told me to ignore them or laugh it off, but don't wilt
in their presence. That only feeds their anger. Stick up for your friends and
they'll stick up for you.
It's a different world these days, so
maybe my advice won't always work, but one thing I know for sure is you are a
worthy opponent, so bullies beware. Don't let bullies get in your head.
"That's
how it was....in my day"
