Jim is a good student and he has lots of friends, but he also has a problem. Some older boys are bullying (欺负) him. Jim is very helpless and he doesn't know what to do about it. Here is some advice for him and other teenagers in this situation.
Bullying is not very common in schools. However, everyone should know something about how to deal with this problem.
Being bullied can make you feel very upset and angry, but you are not alone. Don't hide the problem. Find a person you can trust, such as a teacher or your parents, and tell him or her what you are suffering. After you talk to someone, you will get some support and feel better.
Maybe you will be nervous to speak to an adult, but there are other things you can do. Some people express their feelings more easily on paper. Write a letter to someone or keep a diary, including all the details about what the bullies do, as well as when and where the bullying happened. You can show your letter or diary to responsible adults, and let them know what is going on. The bullies will feel very afraid if their names appear in a letter!
Also, don't show your fear and don't try to fight with the bullies. You can get into trouble, Pay no attention to them and walk away, and the bullies will soon stop.
Susan and Annie are both from Holland. Here are their emails.
Dear Susan, Thanks for your last email! My knees have been OK since I left hospital last week. But I feel very lonely, especially in the day. You might think many kinds of games can help me while they are boring for me. What should I do? Yours, Annie

Dear Annie, ①Sorry to hear you're lonely! ②I think you need someone to talk with. When you have a walk in the neighbourhood, start a conversation with others in a friendly way. And I remember you like shopping. Do you talk with the cashier(收银员) while checking out? It's common to check out quickly, so people behind us inline won't wait too long. But do you know "chat checkout" programme? It is introduced by Jumbo, our large supermarket chain(连锁超市). In some of its stores, customers can talk with cashiers for as long as they want. There is also a chat corner in the supermarket. People can have a good time talking with each other over a nice cup of coffee. The world continues to move faster and faster. Many people sometimes find themselves feeling lonely. The programme is to play a role in helping people tocombat loneliness. This "chat checkout" service is so popular that Jumbo is planning to introduce it into more supermarkets. As you can see, more people in our country follow a different rule at some supermarkets: Chatting happily is more important than checking out quickly. ③Why not have a try to chat with cashiers when you go shopping next time? Love, Susan |
