Dealing with bullies in school, on the playground and cyber bullying



More Bullying Comeback Lines Click Here

Dealing with bullies in school, on the playground and cyber bullying the smart way
Verbal Judo Tongue Fu!  Peace Education The Bodyguard Way
Redirecting Behavior With Words - Wage Peace

Here are new bullying comeback lines you can use to handle a bullying situation.
  • Deadpan Bullying Comeback: "Why do you waste your time saying that stuff to me?"
  • Deadpan Bullying Comeback: "I'm not sure why you keep saying these things to me, but it really doesn't matter."
  • Deadpan Bullying Comeback: "Okay. Finished?"
  • Deadpan Bullying Comeback: "That's funny, but now I'm bored."
  • Deadpan Bullying Comeback: "Those things are ridiculous, but whatever."
  • Deadpan Bullying Comeback: "Here we go again, tell me when you are done."
  • Deadpan Bullying Comeback: "I don't do this to you. You should really think about what kind of person you are acting like."
Remember that it's not just what you say but HOW you say it. Your body language, tone and delivery are key to making these work.
Be Water When They Are Fire.  It's really hard to continue to be mean to someone when they are strong enough to stay nice.  Eventually, most people will learn to respect you and become your friend.  Only in rare cases do people continue after you have shown that you will not get angry or allow yourself to react in an exaggerated manner.  Be kind, compassionate and loving and you will be surprised at how others will treat you.  At first, it usually gets worse, but then it gets better as they learn how to treat you.  Many times, you will have earned their respect and become friends.

Who is mighty? One who has self control and can make friends from enemies.
Cyber bullying, also known as electronic bullying or online social cruelty, is defined as bullying through a variety of mediums including:
  • email
  • IM - instant messaging
  • Chat rooms
  • Websites
  • Gaming sites
  • Text messages through cell-phones
  • Pictures and videos
  • Whatever new technology is adopted by this demographic
 Solutions:

  • Inform them to stop
  • Turn it off
  • Create new screen name and identity
  • Document and keep records of everything
  • Report it if necessary
  • Don't respond [starved response]
  • Give them options to be friendly or documented

 Wage Peace!

Learn Verbal Judo to Prevent Bullies at Phoenix Martial Arts School


 Learn How Your Child Can Successfully Avoid Bullying Using Proven Verbal Judo Techniques 

Would you like your child to learn mental self defense techniques along with the “fun karate” techniques he’s really interested in?

Phoenix USA Martial Arts in Paradise Valley, AZ has a verbal self defense program based on the highly successful law enforcement curriculum that Police are taught.  From handling bullies to learning how to use brains over brawn and resolve conflicts peacefully, Phoenix USA Martial Arts program gives children the tools they need to stay strong, safe and happy.

Our Verbal Judo program will teach your child


  • Presenting himself with confidence without being overbearing


  • Recognizing problem situations & Anger Management


  • Physical response for defense ONLY as a last resort
We were wrong when we used to tell victims of bullying to “just ignore” the bully. This philosophy only served to embolden the Bully and creates a convenient and inviting target for ongoing abuse (which usually escalates).


USA Martial Arts Verbal Judo will teach your child how to create 


  • Anger Guards – to identify what makes him angry
  • Word Blocks – to defend himself with assertive words and humor
  • Verbal Counters that de-escalate confrontations
Internet Special!



The program at USA Martial Arts Phoenix teaches children and adults both physical self defense techniques and what we call “Mental Self Defense”.





  • Our program helps children to develop: 
    • Self confidence
    • Self Control
    • Better attitude at home
    • Improved motivation at school
