orphans answered Tuesday May 3 2005, 8:04 pm: i know it's way harder than it seem standing up for a bully. just ignore them and see what happens. if you act like you dont care then they'll go find some1 else to bully. if that doesnt work then tel your mom to talk to the bully's mom maybe. if that still doesnt work tel the principal again. schools are suposed to help you out when uyour in trouble.

karenR answered Sunday May 1 2005, 12:50 pm: Certainly don't do it if it puts you in danger. I would just ignore them. Easier said than done I know. But other than getting some big football player types to give them a talking to, I don't know what else would work for you. Good luck :) [ karenR's advice column | Ask karenR A Question ]
K2204 answered Sunday May 1 2005, 12:45 pm: well, get confidence, i know its hard, i was a victim for almost 5 years. but i had the wrong friends. and i had no confidence, but i am such a lond person, so now i have new friends, who are a tun of fun! i just went around talking to different people, and not carring what they think. because i knew and still do know who i am, and what they say doesnt change me. no matter how hard they try. try not to let them see that it gets to you. also, dont confront them, then they know that they hurt you.
try this:
when they are being mean say: "get a life" they will most likely say "i have one" and then maybe something else to you.
then respond with " then go get some friends" then they will most likely say " i have some" or "I have some unlike you"
then respond with a variation or combination of the following:
"then why do you spend all this time talking to me?"
" why dont you go hang with your friends then?"
" if you dont like me so much, why are you spending so much time talking to me, and not your friends?"
"if you dont like me so much, they why do you talk to me more than your 'friends'?"
hope I Helped!
thanks for letting me help yoU
if you ever need anything else, please leave one in my inbox, and i will be more than happy to help you!!

LiSaxOBaBii answered Saturday April 30 2005, 6:16 pm: If those people are the type that would fight you about it I understand.I thought that I could put myself in danger by sticking up for myself, but I saw that once I dissed them they back-downed quickly.Just use sarcasm and say things like 'wow, you hurt my feelings' make it obvious that you don't care what they say.Or just laugh at what they say like you think it's a joke.Trust me, a laugh isn't the reaction they were hoping for and it will end up emberassing them on their part.Trust me, if you do it right, they will stop the first time you emberass them and people are around to see.

Crazy_Girl15 answered Saturday April 30 2005, 4:08 pm: you can't be afraid of these people.. their main problem is is that they feel inferior in some way. they feel bad so they take it out on others and i know that you've probably heard that before but it's true. they're afraid of things they cannot control so they want to make you scared too.. seriously.. just once.. just tell them you're not afraid of them. just treat them the way they are, completly stupid.. just be like oh never heard that one before.. you don't have to fight back and sometimes you just need to let it go and then they will too.
