[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Bullies will look for a reaction...they want the target to get all upset.   A comeback will feel better while you are planning it, but will likely escalate things. But an unconcerned shrug and walk away will stop the bullying much faster. [/quote]

This is untrue. I was mercilessly bullied from middle of 1st grade until I left school near the end of 10th. My mother always told me to ignore all of it. Ignore the comments, ignore people yelling in my face, ignore people pushing me down the stairs, putting pins or clay or dirt on my seat, ignore glue being poured into my hair, ignore being shoved around on the school bus and having my glasses knocked off, ignore the kids on either side of my locker physically preventing me from getting to it so I was late every day, ignore them prank calling my house and screaming obscenities at me, ignore them spiting dozens of spitballs into my hair, ignore them following me down a school hallway shoving me, ignore  walking out of class and promptly getting punched in the face.

Yeah, ignoring does NOT work. Kids got suspended because of how much they bullied me, and I still got told to ignore. Ignoring was not the answer. [/quote]
