Bullying Prevention Awareness 29 How can I safely help other kids? Bullying is never okay, and if you see someone being bullied, you can make a big difference by taking action! Here are some things you can do to help: Speak up! Let the bully know that what they're doing is not okay. You can say something like, "Stop being mean!" or "That's not cool, leave them alone." Speaking up takes a lot of courage, but it's important to show the bully that their behaviour is not acceptable. Be a friend! Being bullied can be really tough, so it's important to let the person being bullied know that you're there for them. You can say something like, "I'm sorry that happened. Do you want to talk about it?" Or, you can invite them to hang out with you or include them in your activities.This will help them feel less alone and more supported. Get help! If the bullying is serious or you don't feel comfortable intervening, it's important to tell a teacher, parent, another trusted adult, or to contact BullyingCanada if those don’t feel like options. We can help put a stop to the bullying and make sure everyone is safe. Be a role model! One of the best ways to prevent bullying is to be a kind, respectful, and empathetic person.

Remember, standing up to bullies is not always easy, but it's the right thing to do. If you ever need help or support, don't be afraid to reach out to a trusted adult or BullyingCanada.And if you're ever the one being bullied, remember that it's not your fault and there are people who can help you.
