Bullies: A big deal

In school, we had a assembly to discuss the gravity of bullying.


Meet our host, Assembly Man.


I disagreed with everything Assembly Man said. The only way he could get us to listen was by doing magic tricks.


                                                                                    
 Assembly Man: Tattle if you see bullies! They will be forced to stop by being suspended!

My reasoning: The bullies will be mad at you. They will target you.


Assembly Man: Stand up to bullies! They will leave you alone!


My reasoning: Good luck being that brave.


Assembly Man: The bullies need witnesses and a victim to get pleasure out of making others feel small!
(Here was his amazing analogy:)
Don't be the oxygen for the bully! Don't wait around! Stand up for the victim!

My reasoning: They are telling you: you are a plant if you don't tell. Plants just sit there, and omit O2.


Joe (My dad): If you are being bullied, beat 'dem bullies up. They won't touch you again!


My reasoning: Yup. That'll work.




Just remember those (the one tip by my father...) tips and defeat bullies!
