1. What would you do?
THE BULLY ACTION PLAN
Created for I M Confident Niagara Canada
By Brenda Silveira
2. WARMING UP
Look at the new
girl, Jan. She is
such a loser. Her
hair looks like
string and she
wears the
dumbest looking
clothing. What
can we say to
3. Let’s call her on
her cell phone
and tell her
how stupid she
is. Then when
she cries, we
can run and
push her down.
PLANNING THE ATTACK
4. 555-639-0945
Hi Jan,
Did you know that
you are wearing
the stupidest
looking outfit
today. It makes
you look like a real
loser.
EXECUTING THE ATTACK
5. How would you respond
to this call?
1) Cry?
2) Get angry?
3) Hang up the phone?
4) Answer back in some
way?
How do you think Jan
RECEIVING THE ATTACK
6. RESPONDING TO THE ATTACK
Jan just came to this
school last week and
hasn’t really talked much
to anyone so the other
students think she is weird.
This makes her a perfect
target for bullies like
Sandra and Ivonne who
think it is fun to hurt
7. IS JAN AN EASY TARGET?
Actually, the phone
call was a good thing.
It brought Jan back
into reality and she
stopped thinking
about her friends for
a minute. She looked
down at her outfit and
then laughed out
9. WHO IS THE LOSER NOW?
Sandra was shocked.
“I can’t believe that she
didn’t care what I said.”
Ivonne replied, “Guess
she isn’t the shy,
insecure person that
we thought she was.
Maybe I’ll go introduce
myself to her.”
10. THE BULLY SOLUTION
Don’t let anyone make you feel bad
NOBODY has the right to hurt you
Don’t respond by getting upset or crying
This is giving them what they want
(control)
Walk away and say nothing
Say thanks (Glad you noticed, thanks)
Defend yourself (That isn’t nice to say)
Tell someone what happened
11. To avoid being hurt by bullies,
work hard at building your
confidence and developing
good esteem.
