Stand tall and walk in a way that shows you are a person deserving respect. Your body language can help prevent you from being a target.

Tell an appropriate adult. Telling to prevent a dangerous situation is not tattling.

Avoid being in harms way. Getting away from a dangerous situation is not being a coward. It's being smart.

Say No to the bully's demands from the start. If you appease a bully about small things, he'll just demand more. (Exception: If you are in physical danger, you may need to go along until you can report it to the police. It's not worth being injured over lunch money.)

Develop friendships -- people who will stand up for each other -- a caring community. Support others and ask for support. If someone is being bullied, speak up. If someone is excluded, include them in your play.
