[quote=Anonymous] I've already taught my children the long, menacing laugh. My DD has perfected it. I've seen her use it to break a would-be bully. She also picked up putting her hand out and saying "tssss," to great effect. Then again, she is a ball of self-confidence. DS needs to work on it, because attacks confuse him. He's more likely to ask what a word means than to respond with force, despite his larger size. I've found that the laughter and eye-rolling blunts the power of whatever insult was intended. I won't revisit them here, but know that they are cruel. My children are early school age. Not sure how the dynamic changes. Not sure it ever does, if my work environment is any indication.[/quote]
