This guy at school has been calling me really mean names such as a fucking bitch and a skank. I found out about it and I was really mad but I just let it go. Then, he started calling me it again so I went up to him and asked him politely to stop. Then, he now did it a THIRD time. I'm just really mad now and I feel there's nothing I can do exept tell the teacher. If I tell my teacher, he could get expelled from the school because my principal is REALLY big about harrasment. I'm not sure if I want him to get in trouble. But I'm sick of him making fun of me. Do you think I should tell a teacher? And why?

Vikki27 answered Friday May 19 2006, 5:18 pm: I understand how you feel and you must be a very caring and compassionate person to be concerned about him after what he has done to you. That is very admirable.
The problem is that maybe you are being TOO nice about it. I know it might sound harsh but the fact is that more than anything else, this guy needs to learn that he just can't treat other people like this. It's not decent behaviour and he shouldn't be allowed to get away with it.
At the end of the day, we all have to learn to accept the consequences to our actions and the only way he will do this is if you do something about it. So be brave, stand up and say something. You deserve to be treated with some respect. [ Vikki27's advice column | Ask Vikki27 A Question ]
