Yet many adults, even your parents and teachers, may not realize how often you see or experience bullying at school and elsewhere. Often adults don't see bullying when it happens. And those adults who see it, and do nothing, may not understand that kids can be hurt by bullying.</div> <bR> <div> Kids who are bullied day after day can feel helpless and alone. They may become too scared to report the bullying, fearing that adults won't believe them. Kids also worry that if the bullies find out they "tattled," the bullying may get worse. To protect kids who are bullied, parents and all adults must understand what bullying is, how harmful it can be, and the best ways to stop bullying behaviors.</div> <bR> <DIV ALIGN="LEFT"></DIV> <div> YOU can help STOP BULLYING NOW by talking to adults about bullying!</div> <bR> <bR> <div> <B>Centers for Disease Control and Prevention</B>  </div> <DIV ALIGN="LEFT"></DIV> <div> <A HREF="http://www.bam.gov/sub_yourlife/yourlife_bullyroundup.html#" TARGET="_top" TITLE="http://www.bam.gov/sub_yourlife/yourlife"><U>The Bully Roundup</U></A> - An interative board game about bullying</div> <bR> <div> <B>GirlsHealth -A</B> web site made just for you!  Girls ages 10-19</div> <DIV ALIGN="LEFT"></DIV> <div> <B> </B><A HREF="http://www.girlshealth.gov/bullying/4students.htm" TARGET="_top" TITLE="http://www.girlshealth.gov/bullying/4stu"><U>Bullying</U></A><A HREF="http://www.girlshealth.gov/bullying/4students.htm" TARGET="_top" TITLE="http://www.girlshealth.gov/bullying/4stu"><U><I> -</I></U></A><A HREF="http://www.girlshealth.gov/bullying/4students.htm" TARGET="_top" TITLE="http://www.girlshealth.gov/bullying/4stu"><U> For Girls</U></A></div> <bR> <div> <B>KidsHealth </B>- A great resource for all kinds of questions - Elementary to Middle School ages</div> <DIV ALIGN="LEFT"></DIV> <div> <A HREF="http://www.kidshealth.org/kid/feeling/school/poll_bullying.html" TARGET="_top" TITLE="http://www.kidshealth.org/kid/feeling/sc"><U>What Kids Say About Bullying</U></A></div> <div> <A HREF="http://www.kidshealth.org/kid/feeling/emotion/bullies.html" TARGET="_top" TITLE="http://www.kidshealth.org/kid/feeling/em"><U>Dealing With Bullies</U></A> (English)</div> <div> <A HREF="http://www.kidshealth.org/kid/en_espanol/sentimientos/bullies_esp.html" TARGET="_top" TITLE="http://www.kidshealth.org/kid/en_espanol"><U>Enfrentándose con peleones</U></A> (Spanish)</div> <bR> <div> <B>National Crime Prevention Council - </B>Overall crime prevention site - McGruff based </div> <DIV ALIGN="LEFT"></DIV> <div> <A HREF="http://mcgruff.org/FunStuff/stop_bully.htm" TARGET="_top" TITLE="http://mcgruff.org/FunStuff/stop_bully.h"><U>Fight The Bully</U></A> - A McGruff Webisode</div> <bR> <div> <B>SafeYouth - </B>National Youth Violence Prevention Resource Center</div> <DIV ALIGN="LEFT"></DIV> <div> <A HREF="http://www.safeyouth.org/scripts/teens/bullying.asp" TARGET="_top" TITLE="http://www.safeyouth.org/scripts/teens/b"><U>Teen Facts on Bullying</U></A></div> <bR> <div> <FONT SIZE="4" COLOR="#FF0000" FACE="Comic Sans MS" ><A HREF="http://www.stopbullyingnow.hrsa.gov/index.asp?area=main" TARGET="_top" TITLE="http://www.stopbullyingnow.hrsa.gov/inde"><U><B>Stop Bullying Now</B></U></A></FONT><B> </B>- Answers questions about bullying in an informative and interactive way</div> <bR> <div> <B>TeensHealth</B> - A great resource for all kinds of questions - Middle School to High School ages</div> <DIV ALIGN="LEFT"></DIV> <div> <A HREF="http://kidshealth.org/teen/your_mind/problems/bullies.html" TARGET="_top" TITLE="http://kidshealth.org/teen/your_mind/pro"><U>Dealing With Bullying</U></A> (English)</div> <div> <A HREF="http://kidshealth.org/teen/en_espanol/mente/bullies_esp.html" TARGET="_top" TITLE="http://kidshealth.org/teen/en_espanol/me"><U>Cómo reaccionar ante la intimidación</U></A> (Spanish)</div> <bR> <bR> <bR> <bR> <div>    </div> </td> </tr></table></body>
