How to Stop Bullying

HOW TO STOP BULLYING
By James Broadwater, Head Instructor, 2nd Dan (Second Degree Black Belt)

It's a fact that there are bullies in our schools, and if you are (or your child is) being bullied, then the question is about how to stop it.

First, realize, understand, accept, and embrace that you have infinite value and worth because you are created by God in the very image of God!

  "...God created the man in his image: in the image of God created he him..." (Genesis 1:27)

Your attitude has to be, "How DARE you attack me!"

Second, don't try to figure out why the bully is bullying you, and don't try to play amateur psychologist by trying to "help" the bully stop bullying. Your responsibility is to exercise the Christian right to self-defense, and then tell your parents, a teacher, and the principal.

And third, realize that effective self-defense must be learned. It takes training and practice to become good at defending yourself. At the Christian Tae Kwon Do Academy, you can do that in an environment where you will be encouraged, and where you will not have to put up with any practices that come from false religions.

  "Blessed be the Lord my strength, which teacheth mine hands to fight, and my fingers to battle."
  (Psalm 144:1)

The Christian Tae Kwon Do Academy trains inside Dance Unlimited at 6787 S. Siwell Rd., Suite E in Byram on Tuesdays at 7:45pm and on Saturdays at 6:30pm and 7:30pm, and is opening soon on Main Street in Florence on Mondays and Fridays at 7:45pm directly across the street from First Baptist Church of Florence.
