Bullying in schools can never be eradicated. The only way to deal with it is to show people that you're not the kind who's going to take bulling. That's what I did in HS. It seemed to work. For girls, I think that running to the parents or authorities would be best if things are getting worse than she can handle. For guys, it's a matter of pride, you can't run to authorities or parents if u do, then ur labled that ur a momma's boy or something.
