Bullying and how to stop it, sentence 4
If you see bullying, don't join in or laugh; stand with the child who is hurt, invite them to be with you, and tell an adult; when one boy in a Seattle playground said «Leave him alone, come with us», the teasing stopped, because bullies want an audience.
Who acts: you, adults, one boy, teasing, bullies · What happens: see, not join in, laugh, stand, hurt, invite · To what, where: bullying, child, adults, adult, boy, audience · Speech: someone speaks here
