What has helped you beat bullying?

One in three children have been cyber-bullied, according to charity Beat Bullying.

They found that text messages, prank phone calls and nasty posts on social networking sites are all being used to bully kids.

The charity has set up a scheme to help using people called CyberMentors, which has been backed by Prime Minister Gordon Brown.

So what have you done to beat bullies?

Are there schemes in your school too? Have you helped other children get help?

"I came to England from the United States and I only spoke Hawaiian. I got teased and when a South African girl came here we both got teased. We stuck together, and told a teacher who sorted it out straight away. Now me and her both speak good English and we help other foreign students so they don't get bullied."

"When I first came to England a few rude people kept asking me hard questions, especially because they knew that I couldn't understand them. Now I can speak English well and when they ask me something I answer and then they feel stupid."

"If you are being bullied tell someone straight away, an adult or parent would be best, they will sort it out if it happens again. They might call their parents in to have a chat about the child's behaviour."

"I got bullied at school and on the computer and I used to react to what they said which made it worse. If it happened to me again I would try not listen to them and ignore them. I would not go on MSN or my emails until it stopped. I would have no contact with them at all and I would tell my parents and head teacher."

"I think people take cyberbullying too seriously because if they do bully you on the internet or by text msg, etc, you can block them. In addition to this, you can tell them you will report them to the police. Being bullied in person is different, if you feel good about yourself then they can't affect you."

Minhaaj, 13, Watford, England

Frank, 13, Washington, USA

"If you are being bullied don't keep it to yourself, tell your parents and get them to speak to your teachers. If you don't you are having a hard life when you should be having a happy life. All bullies want is to wind you up so just don't talk to them and they will get bored. You don't deserve it - so TELL SOMEONE! ;) Hope I helped."

Lerissa, 13, England
