this kid that was in my 1st grade class was a real jerk, then he moved and i was like, "praise the lord he is gone." he moved back in fifth grade and was calling me fat and calling one of my close friends a homo. he continued on with that throughout sixth grade. now, i'm in seventh grade and he's still disrespecting me and calling my best friend short. he was telling me what to do in gym class and i was like, " no!" and he was like, " i'm the captain of this team so do what i say." so i got real p1$$3d and he made me real mad, and when i get mad i cry. and then everyone started asking me what was wrong and it made me cry even more. then i found out that my best friend, the kid he was calling short, punched him. so i was real happy. what do you suggest i do about this jerk?

Ignore him and move on. He's not worth the grief. Idiots are everywhere.

Bullies hate confrontation. This will be very hard for you to do, but you can do it....You need to catch him when he's not expecting it and when he's alone and say "Can I talk to you for a minute" and take him aside. Tell him in a calm voice but firm: "You've been mean to me ever since I was in the First Grade. Can you tell me why? Did I do something to you? I'm serious now, did I do something to upset you, because if I did I'm really sorry. Just tell me so that we can move past this, because I can't stand feeling like this anymore". And be sincere about it. You never know, he could be harboring some stupid resentment his whole life. The fact that you'll be willing to ask about his feelings, will completely change him. If you're afraid to talk to him, then write him a note with these words on it and pass it to him. You'd be surprised.

Well for one don't punch him. Violence never solves anything. What you have to do is called 'rising about the situation' you obviously have him pegged right - he is a jerk. Once you realize - FULLY realize that he is a small minded jerk it is much easier to brush him off and out of your life.
PLEASE believe me when I tell you this, he enjoys being a jerk to you because he enjoys your reaction, getting upset, crying. The ONLY want to combat this problem is simply not let it be a problem. When he bothers you next time glance his way and laugh softly. Don't give him too much attention - that is what he craves. A small chuckle and a shake of the head a few times and he will realize you have him pegged as a looser. He will quickly give up bothering you and your friends who follow suit.

Indeed, you should ignore him; unfortunately this does not mean that he will ignore you. Frankly I think you have put up with enough from this uncouth bully. It really is time to call in the Calvary, Do as jdeekdee has suggested, Talk to your parents,let them deal with the matter from herein. Until quite recently the school children here in England used to just put up with this sort of thing; not any longer! Our schools also have a strict policy on bullying, they `come down like a ton of bricks` on bullies. Also English parents think nothing about marching down to the Head Teachers` office, with their off-spring in tow, demanding to know exactly, how the matter is being dealt with. (sometimes to the great amusement of the kids!) But that does not detect from the seriousness of this very global issue. Good luck.

I would suggest ignoring this person until they put their hands on you or invades your space which is arms length. Then if that happens, find the hardest thing close to you and make it air borne towards them. If you are not close to anything and you are not violent, file charges of harassment with the local police and let the law deal with it. Never too young to make a stand to protect yourself, your feeling or you space. Then once you and your parents have filed a complaint inform the school officials and let them know that if it continues you will file a law suite against them for allowing it to happen. Its wrong and you or no one else should have to endure someone Else's stupidity and ill actions against you because of their insecurities..

I think you should ignore him completely, like hes not even there. It will piss him off that you're acting like you don't care for what he says. There are always going to be bullies around trying to tell others what to do. If you cry or let him see that you're upset, hes going to keep bugging you just to please himself. Just ignore him and tell your friends to do the same. If he gets too out of hand, talk to a teacher or counselor.

Get a few of your friends together, catch the little prick alone, and bank his a s s real good. Make sure that noone sees this, and then tell everyone else that you and you alone whipped his butt. Do this OFF school grounds, preferrably on a Saturday!

I suggest you go to a counsler, ar tell a teacher that you can trust. I'm in 7th grade too, and there are a lot of ba*****s out there. You could also dis him, and see how he reacts.

Tell your parents that every school has a 'anti bully' policy that schools must follow. Tell them to WRITE to the principal (not talk, princ. will ignore them) and ask for a copy of the districts anti bully policy.
Then write back and ask what is he/she going to do to protect their child (you) according to their own policy??
