The Stop Sign Strategy When you witness harassing occurrence, or it is transpiring, say "Stop" or "Enough". Hold your hand up to flag "stop" also.

The Walk Away Strategy After flagging "stop," dismiss and stroll from the harasser. You may go to another table in the cafeteria, an alternate zone on the play area, or an alternate some portion of the transport. Kids in the Middle (onlookers)— you can help by offering help to the objectives—leave with them!

When to approach a grown-up for help… If you have attempted the initial two systems, and . . . The tormenting has not halted, then . . . Approach a grown-up for help (screen, instructor, direction guide, primary, and so forth.)

Tattling Example: "Mrs. Smith, Johnny's blowing rises with his gum" or "Mary is sneaking her nibble amid perusing time." The intention is to get somebody "in a bad position" for getting them in a bad position. Announcing "Mrs. Westendorf, I saw something on the transport and I am stressed somebody may get hurt." The object is to get help for those included. Tormented, "terrorizing, and badgering" are practices that won't go on without serious consequences in our school. Snitching versus Detailing

Speak Up Strategy If somebody is bothering you, take a stab at talking up for yourself. Tell the harasser you need him or her to quit irritating you or you should get a grown-up's offer assistance. This technique works best when there are companions around you can help you. Case: "Hello Loser." "Don't call me that." "Why not, failure?"

Say Yes Strategy Sometimes you might be reluctant to talk up or talking up may not work. All things considered, have a go at concurring with everything the domineering jerk says. It appears to be unusual, yet it might perplex the harasser. Case: "You look so moronic in that hair style." "Yes, I do." Where did you get your hair style, in any case, the canine groomers?" "Correct." "You resemble a puppy!" "Beyond any doubt do." "So you're a pooch?" "On the off chance that you say as much." Slavens, Elaine. Tormenting: Deal with it before there is no other option.

Ask Questions Strategy Try asking the harasser a similar question again and again. Case: "You're a @#!%" "Truly. What do you signify?" "What do I mean? What's the issue with you? Are you idiotic?" "No. What do you signify?" "Do you have issue with hearing or something?" "Huh? I don't get it." "Hello, this @!#% can't listen!" "What are you discussing?" Slavens, Elaine. Harassing: Deal with it before it becomes absolutely necessary. Toronto, ON: James Lorimer & Company Ltd., 2003.

Bore the Bully Strategy Be as exhausting as you can be. Give the harasser short, unclear solutions to his or her inquiries or put-down. Case: "Hello, I've heard you're truly imbecilic!" "Truly." "Better believe it, I've heard you have a truly low IQ." "Fascinating." "You're the most moronic in the class—perhaps the school." "Certainly." "Hello, he just conceded he's the stupidest in the school." "Uh-huh." Slavens, Elaine. Tormenting: Deal with it before all other options run out. Toronto, ON: James Lorimer & Company Ltd., 2003.

Repeat Yourself Strategy Keep rehashing a similar expression. Here and there the harasser will get exhausted and get off. Illustration: "You're a @#&%. You should get thrashed." "I don't think so." "That is on account of you're, for example, @#%!" "I don't think so." "You're excessively of a @#!% to battle. Aren't you?" "I don't think so." "No? Indeed, how about we see." "I don't think so." Slavens, Elaine. Tormenting: Deal with it before all other options run out. Toronto, ON: James Lorimer & Company Ltd., 2003.
