Guest guest Posted June 29, 2001 Report Share Posted June 29, 2001 If I can comment. Bullies, only want attention. When you are not the least upset at their antics, they eventually defuse! Know that you can not change anothers ignorance! That is theirs! Don't join in and add to their game. Find a way to outsmart them all, and still NOT play their game. Make your OWN rules! Walk quiet, carry a big stick. Ha! rose AND, try real hard to not let your E-motions get in the way! Take the 'E' out of emotions, and what do you have? --FORWARD MOTION! Right? Go for it! Damn the torpedoes! This is what I was told a week ago, and it just sounds great! GO FOR IT! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted June 29, 2001 Report Share Posted June 29, 2001 as some of you expected i created a turnmoil both for me and for the teacher. yesterday she called me with tears that the principal shouted on her , bullied her again and told her that she wrote the speech herself... " how dare you " she said to her " do this to me " . you'll be sorry for this (i do not feel compassion for this principal although i know she feels insecure) I spoke with some parents . they love the teacher but won't risk the chance to confront the principal. I told her to get legal advice. one letter from a lawyer at least. she said she'll do it, i tried to convince her to leave this ugly place and seek new chances. she finds it hard to give up. i understand her. this is so emotional. she'll feel even more victim. she wants to fight here. I thought to write a letter to the supervisor of the school, asses that the speech was authentic and ask her to take care and verify that the good guys win. the teacher is happy for this but she thinks the supervisor will make one hand with the teacher. I am trying to find the most elegant effective enlighted way to solve this complication. I feel a lot of anger and frustration that the bullying people are winning the game so far. we made some waves but they are not effective so far.

Guest guest Posted June 29, 2001 Report Share Posted June 29, 2001 good reply on the word at-tension! Bullies love when they have YOU at TENSION. This way, they feel powerful. By(as you did) breaking it down into small pieces, (at-tension_ you can see how much easier 'hurdles' are to over-come. Small bites are easier to swallow! And digest! Rose been there done that.

Guest guest Posted June 29, 2001 Report Share Posted June 29, 2001 Anat, I love this concept of attention being like " at tension " ! I would like to write an article on this, it gives me so many ideas. I just wanted to check with you to see if that would be all right.

Guest guest Posted June 29, 2001 Report Share Posted June 29, 2001 Linda, Go ahead. I have no monopoly on ideas :-) but thank you for asking anyway. it gives me great joy that you liked my idea (English is not even my mother language. i find it difficult to express emotions in English). I learn a lot from this group members too (English too). yours, Anat >Anat, I love this concept of attention being like " at tension " !
