How do you stop a bully from picking on you?

Question

i dont wanna tell on him because i'll feel like i cant fight my own battles....so can someone give me advice?

Answer 1

I will tell u an experience of mine:

   Once,I was travelling by bus and I sat as the second passenger on the seat meant for two. Now the body of bus was pressed inside at our seat by a couple of inches and taking advantage of that the first passenger had kept his bag on seat and was trying to occupy the entire seat for himself. I requested him to move in and he 'pretended' to move in. Then I asked him to keep the bag up in the rack, and his fuse went off. He started shouting at me, and yelled at me to find another seat as this was small (by an inch), and he ended saying " Do whatever you can "! My immedieate reaction was to yell back at him.......but I caught myself and told him calmly, " Look, I have entered this bus because I want to go back to my home. I am not here to fight with you." Saying so, I went to another seat. This behavior of mine took him by surprise, and he started calling me back and he even put his bag up. But I said "No, thanks" and the journey started. It was a long journey and when the bus halted, he came to me an appologised.

                         Now what I think that such "reasoning" would work in most of the cases, as most people are reasonable.

However, if this doesnt work, then u must take a firm stand against him.

All the best.

Answer 2

Stand up to him.

Answer 3

Check in your school calender or Agenda...

look for a policy against bullying...if there is a policy, then talk to your teacher or counseller or principal, ok??

if there's no such policy, then call your parents to school, have them talk to the principal....

by the way, which school are u from??

Answer 4

say it to ur parents

Answer 5

my son was bullied for yrs by same boy,you have to stand up to him show them ur not scared.....is the only way,but tell an adult

Answer 6

Firstly, does your school have a policy against bullies? If so then go talk to an administrator. They have policies in place for dealing with bullies. If not, then sit down with you counselor or Principal or vice principal. If you type in yahoo search engine Bully Busters you will get alot of feedback of how to start it. If there isn't a bully policy at your school then you probably will be the hero for starting it. It could be your calling.

Now if it is a bully in the neighborhood, make sure your parents know. They may want to talk to the parents of this child. But if you don't talk it over with someone (an adult) you could get so mad and frustrated that you will take it out in the wrong way. Good luck.

Answer 7

Tell your parents. Have them tell the principal and your teacher, since I know you don't want to do it in front of the bully. Have your parents talk to/confront the bully's parents.

Answer 8

That's a hard one. I've been picked on a lot of times. I used to try avoiding the person as best I could and usually they'd get bored and leave me alone after awhile.

Answer 9

If someone picks on you it normally means there just jealous of you. So just ignore them and make them feel like the dumby they are. If they say anything to you just say OOOOOK. sure. or whatever. or so what! Then  they they will feel like there just wasting there time and then leave you alone. But if it gets physical make sure to go to an adult you can even press charges if you have to.

Answer 10

Well like everyone say stand up to him or just ignore hime if things still get to hard tell a parent or teacher or sum of ur closest friend the bully might think your a snitch or a tattle -tale but honestly would you rather be picked on badly by a bully or get some frredom by getting some help its ok to ask for help sometimes...hope i helped good luck!
