2 During the last homeroom we defined respect and respectful behaviors between you, your friends, and adults. Then we took a respect survey which asked about your interactions with your peers and adults. Here are the survey results of 1214 surveys completed: 83 % of students feel that they treat others respectfully. 63% feel that others treat them respectfully. 86% feel safe at school. 83 % of students feel that they treat others respectfully. 63% feel that others treat them respectfully. 86% feel safe at school.  In the past week… 43% felt that someone had treated them disrespectfully. We then asked this 43% how they responded when they were treated disrespectfully: 25 % ignored it, 7% made it into a joke, 11% got angry, 7% walked away, and 7% told an adult. (The rest did not respond.)  In the past week… 60% had seen someone else being treated disrespectfully. We then asked this 60% how they responded to someone else being treated disrespectfully: 27 % ignored it, 4% made it into a joke, 9% got angry, 12% walked away, and 7% told an adult. (The rest did not respond.)

3 Introduction to Bullying Video

4 What is the difference between bullying and treating someone with disrespect?  People interact and communicate both face to face and online. In most cases communication is friendly, but sometimes the communication will lead to teasing (funny to some but not to others), sarcasm, insensitive comments, name calling, and other hurtful comments/actions in the heat of the moment. While this can cause pain to the individuals at the time, in most cases this is not viewed as bullying behavior.  This is a hurtful incident-a disrespectful behavior, which will hopefully be resolved between the parties involved in a short period of time.  Bullying is different. Bullying is a situation in which someone intentionally and repeatedly harasses, makes fun of, or mistreats others either face to face or through social media.  Intentional -behaviors that are willful and deliberate acts of disrespect.  Harmful -behaviors that cause someone else to feel/experience humiliation, pain, or fear.  Repeated -harassment that occurs many times over extended periods of time or involves a lot of other people repeating or passing on hurtful rumors, posts, or images.  People interact and communicate both face to face and online.

5 To help you understand the impacts of bullying on your friends and neighbors, we will be sharing some emotional stories from Memorial High School students and parents. Please listen closely. Video: Student Stories The two individuals depicted in these videos have chosen to share their stories so that we can understand what they went through and how they handled it. Although we want to discuss bullying in general, this is not the time for sharing the stories of others, especially when we do not have their permission to do so.

6 Reflection:  How did the two students who shared their stories handle the bullying differently?  What was a common message between the two?  What is the trade-off or advantages vs. disadvantages of ignoring it (grinning and bearing it) vs. telling someone?  How did the two students who shared their stories handle the bullying differently?  What was a common message between the two?  What is the trade-off or advantages vs. disadvantages of ignoring it (grinning and bearing it) vs. telling someone?

7 What do you do if you think you are being bullied? There are different responses based on the situation and people involved. (courtesy of Justin Patchin, UWEC)  Laugh it off. If these are newer incidents of disrespect, often the person is seeking attention. By making a joke of the incident, you could diffuse the situation and minimize the attention the bully is seeking.  Ignore it. People who bully like the attention and/or audience that they get from their disrespectful behaviors. Do not acknowledge what they said or wrote in any way.  Speak up. If ignoring the person doesn’t work, tell the person directly to stop. If you are too nervous doing this, ask a friend to do this on your behalf.  Unfriend the person on social media sites.  Keep a journal. If it happens verbally write it down. If it happens on social media, take a screen shot and keep it. Document with as much detail as possible. If the abuse continues report the abuse to abuse@(website).com Example: abuse@twitter.com Instagram and Facebook also have “Help”, “Safety” or “Contact” reporting sites. If you send your journal (social media) entries to the sites, they will often block or suspend the account the bully is using. abuse@(website).comabuse@twitter.com  Laugh it off.

8 What do you do continued….  Never retaliate: You need to show/provide evidence that the other person was bullying you. If you retaliate, it looks like you were both bullying.  Talk about it. Talk to a parent, teacher, coach, counselor, or friend. Never keep it to yourself. You need a support system to get through this. Please give others a chance to come through for you.  When you must tell an adult: When you feel scared, feel threatened, when you want to avoid school or being with certain people, events or places, when you find that the situation is all you can think about, when the situation is negatively affecting your life, when you are depressed or if you feel suicidal.
