Bus bullies

I'm not really sure WHAT to do... but on mine and my best friend's way home on the bus some guy infront of us was throwing things and one of the things hit my best friend to which she yelled at him and said "STOP THROWING THINGS!" and that's where it all began... I'm one of those people who usually stay hidden and no one even knows that I exsist. I've seen this guy do things to people on the bus all the time... well... he turns around and chunks something at her harder and I yell at him to stop it, and he tells me to F off, but i'm just like "TURN AROUND!!!" and then the girls behind us who is his friend start saying that they are going to kill us... meanwhile he is threating to bust our teeth in... And the bus driver just watches as he drives.. and doesn't stop them... what can I do? and what if they actually try to do something on the bus tomorrow to us? or what if they do something at our bus stop while we're waiting for the bus?

Hi Lexi,

Go tell your parents right now what happened on the bus. If you can't talk to your parents, call an asult that you trust and tell him/her. You and your friend need an adult to go to the principal for you and tell him/her what happened.

I wish you well,

Jan

Yes, you definitely need to tell someone in authority.

Don't tolerate living in fear. I did that for years and it gets exhausting, then you get angry. It just builds up over time. I know in those situations it's truly terrifying. I remember one time when I was on the bus in high school I was jumped by some girls in the back of the bus. The bus driver did nothing. I ended up skipping school a few days after that, I was to scared to face them again. I finally dealt with it, got on the bus, looked them square in the face with no fear. They made a few remarks but I did nothing. When they realized I did not give two shits about what they said or done they left me alone. Bullies smell fear...don't let them sway your life. If they fight you, fight back....
