Sometimes a person in childhood, adolescence and even in adulthood can become the object of ridicule or attacks. If, for one reason or another, he is overweight, be sure that this will not pass by the attention of ill-mannered "witches", and the poor fellow will begin to call him either "fattrest" or another not less offensive nickname. In any collective, even among the masses of completely normal people, there are always not the most intelligent personalities who enjoy making fun of others, sometimes bringing them to tears. What to do in such a situation?
For example, what should a schoolchild, who is called names, teased by cruel peers, act? Of course, you can try to defend your dignity by using force. And in some cases this is really the only way out, alas, there are people who do not understand another language. But, firstly, the abuser can be physically stronger. Secondly, there may be several of them. Thirdly, it may not be the offender, but the offender. Don't beat the girl (though she's frankly mean)! In general, it is worth taking physical strength only in extreme cases.
First of all, the child and his parents should clearly and clearly understand that a painful reaction to offensive nicknames (anger and, moreover, tears) is a real gift to those who tease him. And the more the child will show that he is offended by offensive nicknames, the more willingly and diligently they will continue their "dirty deed". Unfortunately, there are people like that, you can't get away from this. As a rule, they "feed" on the tears of strangers, this adds a certain superiority to them (of course, in their opinion).
Therefore, no matter how difficult it may be, you should try to control yourself. The best reaction to all the efforts of the offenders is contemptuous indifference. Very soon they will get tired of “shaking the air” in vain, and they will lag behind, switching to the search for another “victim”.
If it is impossible to tolerate their antics, you can try to "beat enemies with their own weapons." The abuser (or offenders) certainly have their "weak points". You just need to look closely and find them. Those who are accustomed to taunting others usually do not expect themselves to be the object of ridicule, moreover, very sharp and caustic ones. The stronger the shock of the "witches" will be when they start calling them names.
Well, if all else fails, then the child should be transferred to another school.
