Raymond, Millie’s friend, is having a problem at school.
He is being bullied.
Millie wrote an email to give him advice.
Let’s read her email and see how she helps.
Let’s read
Hi Raymond,
I’m so sorry to hear that you’re having trouble with a school bully. Bullying is a serious problem and causes a lot of pain. No one should have to put up with that.
Do not let a bully get you down. Bullies like to make others feel bad about themselves. But my dear friend, remember that you are a kind person, and that matters. Be strong and stand up for yourself.
I understand you are filled with shame and fear when you are bullied. But don’t be afraid to tell people what is going on. Talk to an adult you trust. They can help you.
Remember that you are not alone. If you need someone to talk to, please reach out to me. I’m always here for you.
With love and support,
Wang Xinyue
