DEALING WITH BULLYING: TIPS FROM CHILDLINE
Bullying and cyberbullying | Childline
Report it and block people
If someone’s harassing or bullying you online, you can report it on the site or app. Even if someone else has reported it, making a report yourself can make it more likely the content will be removed. Don’t reply to abusive messages or posts as this can make things worse.
Keep evidence
Keep a diary of what’s been happening and when, and take screenshots of online messages. This can help you prove what’s been happening.
Tell someone at school
If you’re being bullied by people at school, your school has a responsibility to support you. If you have screenshots or evidence of what’s been happening, show them to a teacher you trust.
Practise being assertive
Being assertive means standing up for yourself without being aggressive. It can help you feel more confident and in control when someone’s bullying you.
Get support from someone you trust
You don’t have to cope with bullying alone. Talking to an adult you trust can help you to find ways to stop the bullying. If you don’t know who to talk to, talk to Childline.
Take a break from checking messages
it’s natural to want to see what people are saying when they’re bullying you. But taking time away from your phone or device, even for a few minutes, can help you to feel calmer.
