A great friend of mine, her little sister is in 6th grade and is constantly getting picked on by kids at her school. She came home in tears. I am very upset about it but what is something she should do about it instead of suffering silently?

if they steal your lunch put laxatives in the food, if they beat you up fight back and punch them in the throat. i know this probably isint the best advice but its the only thing that worked for me so im guessing it can work for you

If it's just verbal then you should walk away, don't take the bait. I've taken the bait and it ended up getting physical for me and them. I didn't want to get anyone else involved and it got worse and worse. It only stopped when the school year ended.
If it's physical then tell someone, please. And if it's a toxic friend then cut your ties with them and warn other friends and people you know not to fall into their trap.
Love yourself and others, 'Kay love y'all, bye!

Coming from a person who was bullied quite a bit. Tell someone. Like an adult who can actually do something about it. It they don't do anything for you suckered punch the bully. But if you do suckered punch them make sure it is when the are bullying you so you have an excuse.
Also Carly. If you are reading this I wish I had suckered punched you when I had the chance. Especially the one time you threw me off the top of the playground into the chain ladder. If I ever see you again I hope you have changed and if not watch these hands. :)
-From the little red head you bullied.

I would first talk to her about the situation and then bring it up to teachers to get help. Getting bullied can really affect someone's confidence, so help her build it up, bullies like easy targets

I think if there’s an opportunity to take a self defense class it might benefit both her ability to fend for herself physically (if she is, in fact, being physically bullied), as well as give her self esteem a boost. Plus she might even make a like minded friend there too.

As someone who was bullied relentlessly in my early years in school I give you this advice: don't change who you are. Don't turn away from what you're being bullied for. Embrace it. Make it who you are as a person. Eventually the bullies will see you as the coolest person they know.

In my day I was bullied for being intelligent. Eventually the bullies came to me for help.

Ignoring them would be a smart action, but if that fires them up it's best to be nice to them. There's always more to the story, and even if they are just mean, being nice back hurts more than being mean back.
