When girls bully other girls bystanders can get sucked in easily and participate out of fear of not fitting in or being turned on themselves. This can only be stopped if girls stand up for what is right!
-Don't give in! If you know it is happening DON'T participate!
-Don't laugh or encourage the bully!
-Say something positive about the situation!
-Talk to the victim-in private or in front of the bully-and tell them you don't agree with what has been said/done!
-Get them out of the situation-be their ally!
The following video, created by Julie Hertzog, the Director of the National Center for Bullying Prevention, shares some great information about girls who bully:
