Break the myth that "Sticks and stones may break my bones, but names will never hurt me."

Hitting, kicking, and tripping

All physical ways to abuse

Social isolation and spreading of rumors

Will also give students the blues.

 

Billy's Bullying Tip:  60% of the time, bullying is occurring through verbal abuse.  Consider listening to the language of people in a different perspective:  In a different situation, would these words be received as positive and encouraging or negative and degrading?

The end of an abuse starts with a voice such as yours.

Sometime word hit much harder than any stones. What is so sad, is these bullies half the time don't know what they're doing, or are just cowards picking on innocent ones. Sad. You expressed it well.
