When dealing with any bully, it’s always best to tell them in a clear, strong voice to leave you alone.
	If you meet someone like Big Bad Bully… 1. Refuse to fight – just walk away (duck & dodge if you need to). 2. Walk with a group of friends – bullies don’t like to be outnumbered.
	If you encounter someone like The Barnacle … 1. Look out - he’s probably working with another, stronger bully. 2. Ignore his taunts – try turning his insults into jokes.
	If you encounter someone like Mirage… 1. Tell her to stop spreading lies. 2. Ask her why she keeps bothering you. OR 3. Don’t say anything – just walk away.
	If you encounter someone like Lone Wolf … 1. Stay in a group (bullies don’t like to bully when other people are around). 2. Tell him that what he is doing hurts your feelings. 3. Ask him why he keeps bothering you.
	If you see that Freezout has been able to get others to exclude someone… 1. Be a friend to that person. 2. Refuse to exclude the person – make extra effort to include them. 3. Stand up for the person being excluded. 4. Tell the bully that what they are doing is wrong.
	If you ever don’t feel safe, report the situation to a trusted adult (like a teacher).
