How To Avoid Being a Target for Bullying
Rigby (2002), who is a respected researcher on the topic of bullying, nationally and internationally, states:
“Bullying involves a desire to hurt + hurtful action + a power imbalance + (typically) repetition + an unjust use of power + evident enjoyment by the aggressor and generally a sense of being oppressed on the part of the victim.” (p 51)
"Children Who Bully Look For Easy Targets" 
10 Signs Children May Be an Easy Target for Bullying Behavior


Research has revealed a number of characteristics and behaviors that put children at risk for victimization.*

It may not be your fault that a someone chose to be a bully, but you can do something about it to change the fact that they are bullying you.  There is hope.   


1. Children signally perceived vulnerability - look like an easy target, scared or weak
2. Children they think won't tell or enforce a consequence
3. Children they think they can control  (usually through intimidation, mocking, threats and so on.)
4. Children who they think they can provoke a reaction - usually anger or hurt
5. Children who do not know how to deny opportunity "take the bait and fall into the trap"
6. Children who pose no consequence to them
7. Children who react with exaggerated emotion such as crying or other outbursts
8. Children who just take the abuse, seem meek or quiet
9. Children who are "loners" or tend to isolate themselves or seem withdrawn
10. Children who have difficulty making friends easily

You can learn how to effectively handle bullying behavior.  The Arizona Bullying Intervention Initiative - Bully Prevention Project works with a team of dedicated specialists to help bully-proof and victim-target proof Arizona Children.

Arizona Bully Proof Project - Training Teachers, Parents and Children How To Handle Bullies



Bully Proof Training Arizona

How to stop a bully, bullies and bullying behavior. A private initiative sponsored by a collaborative effort of USA Martial Arts Phoenix and Nottingham Sword & Shield Security Bodyguards




  • 160,000 children cut school every day in the United States to avoid a bully. --National Education Association. 
  • A majority of the school shootings have been linked to cases of excessive bullying - U.S. Secret Service. 
  • Studies have shown that adults who were bullied as children have a much higher level of depression and lower self-esteem than those who were not.

Our mission is to STOP this epidemic of bullying and prepare our children for life!!!

Bullies To Buddies | How To Defeat a Bully Without Fighting
A 5 Step 3 Pronged Assertiveness and Bully Proof Course

Designed for Children in part by leading training experts!

Everyday our kids are in EXPOSURE ZONES where inappropriate and often violent behavior occurs. This course teaches children how to handle the various difficult situations that arise everyday.

In a fun and lively environment, this program addresses the following:



Dealing With Bullies:


  • Playground altercations
  • How to handle name calling and teasing
  • Protecting personal “space” and possessions
  • Setting boundaries against inappropriate touch or attention
  • Assessing appropriate defense and how NOT to start a fight
  • How to physically break away and escape the grasp of a would be abductor

Children gain CONFIDENCE with the new assertive choices they learn to apply in a wide variety of situations. Our students are less likely to react out of anger or fear, or have to use physical resistance after asserting proper awareness skills and appropriate de-escalation behavior. This course is invaluable to help kids deal with bullies that are taking advantage of the zero tolerance rules at school!
