This problem can seem worse when you first get to a new school. Making people hurt is sick! Shame and humiliation is not necessary. Everybody should be able to come to school and not have to worry about being teased, picked on, left out, tricked, or threatened. The first step in making your school free from social bullying is to start thinking and talking about it. Most students handle these issues among themselves. Adults usually are around, but not in- volved in the day-to-day bullying. This workbook is designed to stimulate thinking, writing, and talking about social bullying. Stand up for safe and creative schools for yourself and your friends. Try to become aware of social or relational aggression IN YOUR SCHOOL. When you see a peer being bullied, notice it, think about it, and somehow get involved. Do not just watch, the next victim may be YOU or someone you care about. Teachers are trying to be helpful. Students have to start the process and use the teachers as helpers in creating a safe school. “MEAN TEENS” Worksheet for comics What do you think the point of this comic is? Give this comic a title.
