you taken away forever<br />

up.<br />
Bullying can be beaten when you, your parents<br />
and teachers work together<br />

bully in the eye<br />

your inner self has been hurt.<br />

stop bullies<br />
• always speak up, never, never, never put up<br />
with it and say nothing<br />
Always remember, it is not your problem<br />

• it is the bully that has to be made to change,<br />
not you.<br />
When reporting bullying<br />
