I was bullied when I was a kid until the age of nine years old. At that point my parents decided that I'd had enough and enrolled me in a karate class. Not only was I able to learn how to defend myself, but I also learned how to try to talk my way out of trouble before fighting. Of course after being bullied for many years people thought I was still an easy target. One kid that had picked on me for several years decided he would not listen to my reasoning and tried to beat me up. I don't remember what actually happened in the fight, but I ended up breaking his leg so badly that he was in a body cast for a year. His parents tried to sue me but it was thrown out of court since there were too many witnesses to him starting the fight. After everyone saw what happened to him I never had to fight ever again.

The advice I would give to anyone who is being bullied is to fight back as hard as you can and when others see that she will not put up with it that will end it.
