  • Don't you have to be 14 to get on AB? Anyway, ignore them.
  • Just ask her, "Are you mean because you're ugly or are you just trying to get my attention because I'm cute?" She won't know how to answer you and be confused on what to do about it.
  • Attend some Martial Arts classes.
  • At 10, she hasn't even got jugs you can punch, lol
  • The best thing you can do is ignore, ignore till she gets so frustrated that she makes a fool of herself. just enjoy the fact that you can annoy her through ignoring her bulying of you and believe me, youll be a much ebtter person when you grow up compared to her.
  • Ignoring a bully generally doesn't work. When my sister was young she once asked me to help her with a bully. After I tackled this kid after school and gave him a stern warning, he never bothered her again. If you don't have a big brother, you should seriously consider learning karate or even just working out to get stronger. Sometimes life will surprise you in a good way, like if in a year, you're a foot taller (and much stronger) than the bully, which often happens around that age.
  • You shouldn't have to. If it is really serious, get an adult involved--a teacher, parent, counselor. If this girl is threatening you, physically hurting you, or stealing from you, then she is breaking the law.
  • Firstly, ignoring bullies doesn't usually work. A tyrant will always find an excuse to torture the meek. If it's the kind of bully you see on TV that beats kids up and steals their lunch money, then (a)learn martial arts/karate or (b)get an adult or older sibling's help. If it's the kind of bully that just tells you you're ugly and stupid, then the trick is to nullify their insults. It's like dodging in a punch, instead of punching back (a bully will probably just laugh if you insult them back, and considering you're a shy kid, what you say might not come out as confident as you want it to, and it could backfire. They know you're down and they have a reason to get revenge). So, perhaps they insult your clothing. Agree and say your grandmother got it for you for Christmas, and your mother is forcing you to wear it. Perhaps they insult your intelligence. Say you took an IQ test and got a 132. Be quick about it. It's also a chance to improve yourself a bit. There are some good "anti-bully" resources online. Just Google. Make sure to have some friends or witnesses around. Power in numbers, after all. She can't take all of you. This also goes for the beat-you-up-and-take-your-lunch-money type bully. And, if things get absolutely unbearable, then rat them out to an adult - it's partially where the witnesses part comes in. Or you could just bring a tape recorder (:D). On the off hand, I once heard a story about a skinny boy who was always teased and beat up by bullies. He would be so mad that he would go home and punch a tire, which he made into a makeshift punching bag. After a pretty long time, he lost control and punched one of the bullies in the head. Unknowingly, he had developed a lot of muscle practicing against the tire, and the bully ended up mentally retarded. Nobody believed that he was only trying to fight back, because the other bullies said so, except for the school janitor who had seen the boy being teased. Eventually the mentally retarded bully was sent to a special school, the other bullies were expelled and the boy lived happily ever after. Moral of the story: If all else fails, punch tires.
  • Being shy is hard, but you need to get loud. A loud person always sounds scary. Once in high school There was a bully who bullied everyone, she even tried to bully. It didnt help that she was huge and I was small. The thing is if you are loud you sound sure and confident or your self. If a bully thinks you mean bussiness they might back off. I stood up to this girl who was being a bully. I told her if she was going to fight me then she needed to get it over with, because she was waisting my time and I had better things to do then listen to her mouth run all day. I made sure i was loud, I stood as tall as i could and I got in her face. I was not that kind girl, but she out in a place where4 I was going to either stand up to her with all I had, or I was going to put up with her and allow her to treat me bad. I figured if she did fight me, it would then be over. Its not like she would beat me up every day, she would already have the satisfation that she could beat me up, the picking on me wouldnt be as meaningful to her anymore. But In this case she backed off and in most cases they do. But if you have great fear of her, then tell your parents.
  • Try "You look so ugly when you act this way. YUCK!"
  • you say "Why do you keep bullying everybody have a heart or i will tell everybody a lie about you Ha"
  • I have dealt with bullies and girls are always the worst! Nexttime she says something to you, just stay very calm and say "sorry, what was that?" because then she will have to either repeat it or back off, and they usually back off. By putting the spotlight on them it will make them unconfortable and gives you the upper hand. Hope this helps and keep smiling girl x
  • I know how it feels to be bullied. You must stand up for urself, because no1 else will. Most people do this to look tough, but actually they are scared to. Try to find out why you are being treated like this. I will pray that everything works out for the best. Janet
  • Honestly, I learned this from my cousin, if some rude girl goes up to you and gives you a hard time in the hallways or on the playground, just turn around and walk away from her. You'll want to punch her in the face, yes, but that'll make you look like the big bad bully here. Just give her a nasty "Please. Your actually going to try this?" look that says it all, and turn around and walk away. Everyone will be staring (of course) and you'll look like the smarter, taller, more mature person here, and she'll look like an idiot standing there, trying to make fun of a person who doesn't care, and who just walked away from her. We all deal with hard people in life, but if you do the better thing then it makes them look stupid, and regret what they are doing. Also, make sure to tell your teacher, the principal, and your parents about this girl, because she has one option and only one now: To stop. Your older than her, and you know it. Hang around with your friends. Live life. Don't let one girl who doesn't have one dent it. Hope this helps hun.
  • Get your parents and a teacher involved. I am serious.
  • Stand up to her in conversation. If she wants to push and shove, just walk away. No need for YOU to get in trouble because of her. Let your parents know about this, OK?
  • you HAVE to confront the situation. if you dont it will never end, and other people will see it and think your an easy target and pick on you too!!! just tell her STOP!!! or she will regret it. if you have to fight you have to fight. i dont think you should unless absolutly necissary. but you gotta do whatever it takes.
  • well dont let anything that she does bother you act like she didnt make fun of you or just pretend like she isnt there and when she is mean to you just be very very nice back and she will be like WOW try it see if it works :)
  • I'm almost 13 and I'm shy too...but you just have to: .ignore them .tell her to stop .be brave .stand up for you and your friends that's what I do and it helps a lot, specially when your in Jr. High like I am :)
  • I think that standing up for yourself without using violence is a good idea. Get some come backs, for example, "who are you looking at" "you" is one of my favourites. Tell someone who won't kick up a stink like a over protective parent, a teacher who you trust will work. Also, stay with your friends, ones that won't switch to the bullies side when she appears. When you are surrounded by people she won't go for you as often.
  • Here's what I do: Simply be the bigger person. If that person doesn't stop bullying you, just hold your chin up high, smile, and walk away.
  • My daughter is 12. She was bullied in school. She told her teacher about it. The teacher told to a school counselor. Counselor talked to the bullies. It all stopped after that. If you feel you can not defend yourself I'd suggest to tell your teacher and a school counselor. If it doesn't work get your parents involved, to talk to the school principal. You can try to ignore your bully, but some of them get so aggresive, they can get physical. ] That is why I'd get a teacher involved. I agree with the people here - you at 11 are not supposed to be here on AB.
  • redrum redrum
  • The best thing to do is tell an adult your being picked on and see if they can help and by the way nice work geting in here there is an age limit ya know I am a ten year old girl to and i am not a bully
