"Better Days", a movie about two teens who are constantly bullied(被欺凌), has brought new attention to school bullying.
A bully means to give you a hard time for no reason at all. A bully calls your names, takes your things and makes you feel afraid over and over again for a long time.
Surveys show that one-fourth of the US middle school students have experienced bullying.
Bullying can make you feel terrible. Maybe you are scared to go to school, or can't eat or sleep. What can you do? First of all, remember to be proud of who you are. Don't take the bully's mean words to your heart. Also, keep in mind that it's not your fault, it's the bully who has the problem. If you can, ignore the bully, hopefully he or she get bored and stop. If these things don't work, tell your favorite teacher and your parents about the bullying.
And, of course, never be a bully. If you don't like someone, be nice anyway, and the world will be a much happier place.
