Bullying is when someone hurts, threatens<\/strong>, or picks on<\/strong> another person again and again. It can happen in schools, online, at work, or any place where people come together. Bullying can be physical<\/strong>, like hitting or pushing a person, verbal <\/strong>(for example calling names), or digital, like sending mean <\/strong>messages online.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Bullying is dangerous because it can make people feel scared, sad, or alone. It can lead to stress, low self-esteem<\/strong>, and even depression<\/strong>. Some people may stop going to school or work, and in some cases, they may even want to kill themselves.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Here are some simple ways to protect yourself from bullies:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    \n
  1. Tell someone<\/strong>: Talk to a parent, teacher, or someone you trust<\/strong>. You don\u2019t have to face <\/strong>bullies alone.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  2. Stay with friends<\/strong>: Being around people you trust can help you feel safer.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  3. Stay calm<\/strong>: Don’t get angry. Bullies often want to see you upset<\/strong>.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  4. Avoid unsafe places<\/strong>: Stay away from places where bullying happens, if you can.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  5. Use the internet and social media wisely<\/strong>: Block bullies on your accounts <\/strong>and report harmful <\/strong>messages.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  6. Know your rights<\/strong>: Schools and workplaces have rules against bullying. Ask for help if you need it.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n

    Remember, bullying is never okay. Everyone deserves<\/strong> to feel safe and respected. If you see someone being bullied, speak up or get help. Working together with others can stop bullying.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
