What do you say to a bully that sounds emotionally intelligent? What action or behavior do most people take when confronted by a bully? Bullies are interesting people. Life always presents us with a choice of behavior. Are our actions positive or negative? Do we respond with a positive action? Do we respond in kind? And what action is it to do nothing? Doing nothing causes the one being bullied pain and feelings of rejection. Therefore, a negative result to the victim. The person spewing the bullying behavior feels superior and justified. Likewise, a negative result to the bully who has cheated his soul of feelings of true self-confidence and compassion.
Who Are Bullies?
On the whole, most bullies have learned this behavior. For the most part, they experienced bullying at home, at school or the community. Many felt the pain of bullying in all three scenarios. In life, we choose paths or journeys. Those bullied also have choices. Some people choose the path of revenge and demeaning others. Others have spent a lifetime hurting themselves by addiction and negative self-talk. While, others choose a path of learning and experiencing healing hoping to end this horrific behavior. We’ve all experienced being bullied what was your path, your response?
What Do You Say To A Bully That Is Emotionally Intelligent?
What to say to a bully in response to their mean behavior? The debate is ongoing and has certainly lacked the emotionally intelligent response. If one studies energy and the science of its effect on human beings, one realizes that positive energy stifles it. Our brains respond to positive thinking and thoughts with a calming effect. So, it makes sense to me that we address a bully with a positive response. It works as children I have worked with will declare true. It’s easy and simple. Hit them with a positive thought or question. The positive energy coming their way stops the flow of negative energy and allows a different response from both parties. Please think about this and try it. We must stop this mean behavior before it destroys us. Have your children watch our video with Bows Knows. He will teach them a perfect response.
