These bullying stories I remember once I was lookin' like a tiny homo in the first week of middle school and some dumbass said my flip flops make me look like a ****** Like, they did, he didn't lie. Things like that made me grow tough skin though, I don't really take ****.
The whole point of bullying is that it does continue even if you try to stand up for yourself or fight back.
And if you do fight back, you're likely to be expelled.
Well than that's even better, new school, new chance. And at least you go out with dignity!

But anyways, thankfully I was never bullied in school so that years later I would need Lady Gaga to be my mommy and saviour. And if you are one those people, you deserved every bit of the bullying.
The entire point of bullying is that it DOESN'T stop if you defend yourself or try to stop it. That's the entire difference between teasing and bullying. It's like saying "Well sexual harassment only happens if you LET it happen!" The ENTIRE point is that it is a non consensual act.
I'm not saying that is the bullied persons fault at all, that's obviously not the case. All I'm saying is that there are some type of ways to deal with bullying.
If somebody starts to bother you because of your hair, laugh at it and make a funny joke yourself and things like that.
No, not for everyone. The problem with some of your arguments is that the same situations work for others when it doesn't. A lot of times, when a bully gets their ass kicked, they stop.
That's great and all, but our school system isn't set up for that at all. If you kick a bully's ass, YOU'RE likely to be suspended and expelled. And more often than not, a bully will intentionally pick a victim who they know is not strong enough to fight back.
It's like in Orange Is The New Black when poor, weak white girl in jail Piper gets bullied and threatened over and over again and then one night her bully catches her at a really bad personal time and she just snaps and kills her bully.
I don't understand how people are affected by online bullying.
Honestly, neither do I. Anyone who lets themselves be affected by online "bullying" just needs to step away from the screen Granted I've been a part of numerous online bloodbaths but never has it really eroded my life.
Interesting, I'd assume it works the other way around.
But yeah 7th grade is usually tragic, lol
Spending 2 years with people who liked and respected me did a lot more for me socially than spending 2 years around people who disliked me and disrespected me all the time.
