The past few weeks, we've been taking some time to answer a common question that we get about bullying, which is all about friendship and if a friend can be bullying me. It's not easy to identify if a situation is bullying or not. But we also know that if you are experiencing bullying, it's also really tricky to then figure out what to do about it.

So, because of that, we wanted to spend some time in the next two episodes talking all about what you can do if you experience bullying. In this week's episode, we'll be answering that question in 60 seconds or less, and in next week's episode, we'll be having elementary school students share their insight to the exact same question. Now that you know more about this week's episode, let's get into the video.

If you're experiencing bullying, it's not always easy to know what to do, but remember that you have options. First, know that no one ever deserves to be bullied. You have the right to ask for help, and you don't have to go through this experience alone. As difficult as it might be, an important first step is to connect with someone and share more about what's going on.

Ideally, that would be a parent or an adult that you trust. If you don't feel comfortable talking about it with an adult, try first confiding in the friend and asking for their help in sorting out the situation with a goal of talking to an adult. When talking with an adult, share about what happened, who was involved, and steps that you've already taken. Then, create a plan together, asking for their advice, but also sharing your own ideas. Your perspective is important, because it allows the adults to know the best way to support you, in a way that you feel comfortable. Your voice is important, and your opinion on what to do matters.

And with that, that's a wrap, on this sixth episode of Pacer Talks about Bullying. Make sure to join us right back here next week, as we help elementary school students answer the exact same question. They have amazing insights that you won't want to miss. We'll see you then, and remember, together we can create a world without bullying. See you.
