Cindy says
You have to stand up to them. Bullies don’t like to be confronted, And most likely have inner demons within themselves, which is why they are lashing out towards people who seam to be weaker than them. They simply make butter targets. in order to defeat the bully the person that is being bullied must stand up to the bully. And be able to tell someone to get the help they need.
