You never look good trying to make someone else look bad. Bullying in schools are being spread and it should be stopped in anyway. We should all shout out saying no to bullying. Remember what goes around comes back around.

First, do you know what is a bully or bullying?. Simply bullying is seek to harm. There are 4 types of bullying.

These types of bullying are harmful for all of us, not the one who is bullied or the one who bullies only.

So now here are some things we should do and shoutout for it to stop bullying in schools and everywhere:

3: Talk to other kids.

Talk to this kid who is always bullying his friends and let him know that what he is doing is nothing. His words and bullying won’t let him be strong or even a gentleman. Also he should be sure to taste his words before he spits them out.
