It would surely help many parents out there whose kids are being bullied. Bullying can lead to emotional and sometimes physical pain and I would never allow that to happen to any of my children. The idea of my children being harmed, bullied or taunted is not something anyone wants to consider. This is a great blog! It would surely help many parents out there whose kids are being bullied.

]]> Comment on When someone constantly makes fun of you by David Stewart http://www.mrbullyproof.com/when-someone-constantly-makes-fun-of-you#comment-20 David Stewart Tue, 05 Jul 2011 15:30:53 +0000 http://www.mrbullyproof.com/?p=523#comment-20 Thank you very much Mark this was very useful especially the advice not to get involved in fights that you are not naturally inclined to win. Particularly when name calling disputes don't result in a victory for eiither side in the grand scheme of things, becoming involved in one may well be the worst idea.

What people say with their bodies matters so much more than the words they use. Become skilled up in body language and it is very easy to spot the difference between threat and intent. In this instance, the guy on my left puffed out his chest and had his arms wide by his sides. He was standing square on to me but tilted his head to the side so that he could see the other guy. That told me he was using me as protection and therefore did not want a real fight. No telepathy was required, just the ability to read body language.

However .....have your read the book "twin telapathic" yet? this is available on Amazon-I have not but it seems to me that telepathy is another potential form of bullying. What do you think?

However the viciousness of the attacks and the often fatal ramifications of the bullying are not at all in question. <br /><br />Children are dying at the hands of their bullies, or by their own hand as a consequence of that bullying. Tragically some of these children/teens are encouraged an egged on by a parent to bully and torment another. <br /><br />Children who bully often grow up to be adult bullies. They will bully their spouse, their child; they will bully the elderly or the general population. <br /><br />The reason why people bully, children in particular, are many; on December 8th and 9th there is going to be a Conference in Manhattan in New York City hosted by Today’s Child Communications Inc. It will be our Sixth Annual Conference to discuss bullying, gang violence, the use of synthetic drugs, the critically low graduation rates and scholastic achievements of our minority children in particular our black youth as well as other issues that are plaguing our minority children, and stopping them from leading healthy productive lives. <br /><br />At this conference there will be over 500 participants, which includes numerous experts, and media personalities all there in an attempt to seek viable solutions to these dire issues. This is a conference for everyone and while the foicus is on minority children the fact remains that we are an interconnected community and the SUCCESS or FAILURE of one ultimately affects us all.<br />Some of our Conferences Guest will be:<br />• U.S. Sen.

I think the answer is yes. Worse still, I feel that because roasting is legitimised on TV it will become legitimate in the school yard.''<br />I agree - watched this programme and wondered how many 'celebrity' kids in the playground would have this sort of thing done to them, all in the name of 'fun'.<br />I don't think you have to accept bullying though. Perhaps accept that it is going to happen but kids will hopefully be more prepared and aware to deal with it? Adults too, to recognise it's happening? Hmmm...

They always start wars they can't lose. My later school years were absolute hell. The teachers turned a blind eye. I got assaulted with a club on the school bus and the old coot bus driver didn't give a damn. Thank God there's a hell where evil bullies will finally get their comeuppance!
