Thank you Tania,
Are you like Cool Carl because sometime you don't have a clean room? Guess what, I guess there are a lot of people who don't keep their room clean, but they should clean it when it gets messy, right?
Mr. Duy
Asia,
These girls are bullying you and you don't deserve it. Next time it happens, say this loud enough for everyone to hear (including the teacher), I want you to stop calling me those names (or say the names they called you). Your teacher will hear it and ask what's going on. You can tell her and she'll put a stop to it. See how that works. These girls should not be considered friends or they wouldn't be doing that.
You are welcome. Hope things are better for you now.
Cynthia,
First of all, realize that you are doing nothing wrong, they chose to bully you. Second, you need to look them in the eye and in a firm voice, tell them to stop bullying you or you will report to your teacher what they are doing. If it doesn't stop, write down what they do, who they are and when they did it. If they see what you are doing, they will likely stop. If not, after a few instances, report it to your teacher. They may call you a tattletale, but that's OK, it's better than being bullied. Also, let your parents know, but tell them you are taking care of it. But you may need their help if it doesn't stop. They may want to help right away, but tell them you think you'd like to handle it yourself first.
Let me know how you are doing. I'll help too if you need it.
Evion,Sorry you are having a problem with bullying. Here's what to do. First of all, you and your friend should stick together, which is what it looks like you are already doing. When you are being bullied both of you should stand up straight, look them straight in the eye and tell the bullies, "I don't like what you are doing and I want you to stop." They'll probably laugh and say - "Too bad, we're going to do it anyway." So your answer is, "If it doesn't stop we're going to tell someone who will make you stop." If they still laugh, write down what they are doing, who they are, and when it was done. After a few times, tell your teacher, the principal, or whoever is in charge of misbehavior. Show them what you have written down. Don't fight back because they'll then say you have been bullying also, and you'll get into trouble also.
Let me know how that goes. Also, it is a good idea to tell your folks what is happening and what you're going to do about it. If it starts to be a bigger problem, your folks may have to come to school to talk to Mr. Szopinski or Mr. Rodriquez. If those bullies find out your parents are coming, you better believe that they'll be plenty scared. Don't quit reporting until the bullying stops. They have no right to be doing what they are doing to you and your friend. I'm glad you are helping your friend. Remember, keep a list. That's powerful stuff for Mr. Szopinski and Mr. Rodruquez.
Lolita,Here's what you do. First look the bully in the eye and say, "I don't like you hitting me, and if you don't stop I'm going to tell someone." Sometimes that's all it takes. If it doesn't stop you need to tell a teacher or the school disciplinarian. If it is still a problem tell your folks. Another thing you could do is to keep a list.... who hit you and when. Show that to adults who can do something about it so they can talk to the ones hitting you.
Hope this helps. Let me know. The most important thing is to not let it go and do nothing about it; and hitting back just makes it worse.
Hi Ms. Jensen's Class,
It was great to be with you guys today. You are an outstanding group, and I had fun being there. Mrs. Jensen is an excellent teacher and you are a great group of students. Wonderful combination!! Enjoy the rest of your year.
Vanessa,
What are they doing or saying to you? Tell me about it? Does your teacher know? Are you serious or just goofing around? Oak Park is an excellent school.
Christian,
I'll be at Dieterich next week on Monday and Friday.
Great that you followed through. Dieterich school is on TV this month, so I'll have to put you on next month with Allen school if you get it in soon. Otherwise it'll be in May. The show is on every Tuesday and Wednesday at 4:30 p.m. on Comcast Channel 10.
Thank you Christian. I can put your photo on one of my shows, but you have to do certain things first.
Here they are:1. On the tabs on the left, click on the one that says "T.V. permission form".
2. Copy the form with your computer and have one of your parents fill it out and sign it. Include your picture with the form and send it to me. The address is given.
3. Once I get it, I'll include it on the show that has the pictures of the kids in your school. If I don't know what school, I'll just put it on the next show.
4. The show reruns every Tues. and Wed. at 4:30 p.m. on Channel 10 - Comcast all month. Then the next month is the next episode for the month.
5. I'll let you know which show will have your picture on it.
