Dear
A....
By
contacting us you have shown that you care about other people
and, that like most people who get caught up in bullying,
you are simply involved in a situation which has got out of
hand.
I think
you will be able to stop bullying people quite easily - all
it takes is to think about how your actions or words might
hurt someone else and to remember that everyone has a right
not to be bullied. However, your friends may not want to change
as much as you do. They may even put you under some pressure
to join in making fun of someone, so it may take real strength
on your part to suggest to them that this is the wrong thing
to do.
But
remember, peer pressure can be positive as well as negative
and helping people is a lot more satisfying than making their
lives miserable.
Best
wishes,
Anti-Bullying
