There are bullies everywhere. May it be in the school, during NS, office and on the streets. It can mental or physiccal. Mental like making things difficult for some crap reasons. Physical includes pushing and bumping.
There are quite a lot of articles on bully in the internet. Their advices are to tell someone about it and not keep to yourselves. For parents, we got to be sensitive to detect if our child is being traumatised by some bully.
Three approaches to deal with bully. Avoidance, confrontation, and reporting.
Avoidance is best if you are being bullied on the street. Example is some staring incident. Never try to reason with them or settle it in some secluded places. Just apologize and walk away safely.
Confrontation is good if the bully is not too physical. Get someone to go with you in doing so. This also builds confident in facing it. Not to fight but to ask why. Apologize is always a good way to clear the air. Example: I am sorry if I have done something you do not like.
Report it if the first two do not work. Not to worry if there is no evidence against the bully. Another report from another kid makes it a fact.
Finally. Never follow the rules given by the bully like one on one. That is what to wish to achieve. Back off from a fight is smartest.
