Nebraska School Gives Most Idiotic Advice Ever to Deal with Bullies

A school in Lincoln, Nebraska is wiping some major egg off its face after a horrible bullying advice flyer was sent home with kids.

Zeman Elementary School fifth-graders were recently sent home with a flyer to help teach them how to act if they're being bullied. It's worse than you can possibly ever imagine. Here's just a few of the highlights:

Rule #7: Do not tell on bullies. The number one reason bullies hate their victims, is because the victims tell on them. Telling makes the bully want to retaliate. Tell an adult only when a real injury or crime (theft of something valuable) has occurred. Would we keep our friends if we tattled on them?

Rule #8: Don't be a sore loser.

Rule #9: Learn to laugh at yourself and not get "hooked" by put-downs. Make a joke out of it or agree with the put-down. For example: "If you think I'm ugly, you should see my sister!"

Change the word “Bully” to “Rapist” and see if they get the same response.

Giving in to bullies and licking their boots is a good life skill for the young citizens. In adult life, bullies are typically government employees with automatic weapons.

Kids who bully and/or chronically tease other kids should be sent to reform schools. Unfortunately, those have been abolished.

Apparently the State Department is now writing advice on how to deal with bullies.

My Dad’s advice always worked for me: “Punch ‘em square in the nose. They’ll leave you alone after that.” And they always did.

America is a dud nation with this school system, leftist media, total corrupt government with no way to change it because it’s bought & paid for by the globalists.

The wussification continues.

Surprised Nebraska joined in like this. Normally a rough and tumble kind of state.
