How To Put An End To
School Bullying… FAST!!!

Dear Joshua:
My name is “Sally.” I’m in the 7th grade and one of my friends at school is being bullied.
She gets cornered by these really awful girls. It started out with them just yelling at her and teasing her, but now they are slapping, hitting and kicking her.
I’ve tried to help, but they turned on me too and now I’m being bullied as well. The teachers know about this but do almost nothing to make it stop, as they believe “they’re just girls being girls.” What should I do? Please help.
– Sally In Phoenix, Arizona

Dear Sally:
Good news! Located on Van Buren Street over on the north side of Phoenix is a security school (“Mike’s Maulers”) that trains Doberman Pinscher security / attack dogs. They’re right across the street from Chico’s Bail Bonds… you can’t miss ‘em.
They rent their dogs out by the day (and sometimes by-the-hour… if you’re lucky). The telephone number for the place is…
1-800-DOG-BITE.
Anyway…the next time you (or your friend) are being hassled by those chicks at school call the 800# and ask for “Big Mike”
Tell him you spoke to Joshua at AskJoshua.com and that I recommended you sign up for the “Attitude Adjustment Plan.” Sally, this is something you should seriously consider doing… because for just 3 easy payments of $33… I guarantee that not only will those little punks never bother you or your friend again… but also… I can assure you that for the next 7 to 10 days those wanna-be thugs & gangsters will be walking around your school hallways with a severe…
STOP!!!
Don’t Believe A Word Of
What You Just Read Here!!!
I was only kidding… only kidding… just trying to add a little spice… a little humor here… to what is an otherwise, all-around, super-valuable advice column.
That… and… I was just trying to add a little bit of levity to what is an otherwise stressful situation for you.
Whatever.
Okay… listen up now Sally… because this is for real.
To address this problem properly, tell the Principal and Vice Principal of your school exactly what you told me. Also… tell your parents… and your friend’s parents.
This double-whammy of P.P.P. (Principal and Parenting Protection) should bring an immediate stop to the bullying.
While waiting for the bullying to stop though, pray to God for the strength to help you deal with the physical and emotional pain that you and your friend are going through.
A good way to go about praying is to click on this link Accepting J.C. and absorb everything you read there.
You’re Gonna Have To
Trust Me On This Sally!
When you read the life-changing prayer that’s found on Accepting J.C. and you decide to make the life-changing decision that you’re being asked to make, and… when you truly believe (deep in your heart) what you are saying / praying… you will become a new person… with a new heart… with only the purest of desires… and you will help shape the world so it’s a better place for all of us.
It’s true.
You’ll be setting good examples by being overtly nice to everyone including your enemies… and they will burn with shame (if they have even one ounce of moral fiber in their being).
Combine that with even further prayer, obedience to God and by continuously asking Jesus Christ to be your guide.
Sally, take these important steps and you will become a stronger, livelier, more jubilant person who bullies will likely avoid.
Sincerely yours,
