I don't like watching bullying happen around me, but how do I stop it without being bullied myself?

You could give your teacher/principle a private note while they're not in their room and leave it there with no name.

Try to be fair and listen to everyone's opinions. Everyone loves ranting and having a good listener who is there to listen to them. Don't be harsh and take one side, look at everyone's opinions.

Bullying is a tough subject. Although there are combined efforts of moderators, rules, staff, etc., bullying is a thing that may never be stopped. When you see bullying up close, it is very hard to try and stand up for the person recieving the behavior, but it is always the best thing to do. Standing up can sound like "Hey man, thats not cool", to something like , "You need to stop, that is not ok", but there are always variables. This can depend on how high up the social ladder you are, (in this case, being respected gives you more authority, making everything easier), how old you are (people who are older tend to win most arguements), to even small things like how well you know the person who is the bully. Overall, this is a hord subject, but you can do anything to stop. If this made no sense, just try giving the bully a cold stare, or saying a classic "your mom" joke. That can always lighten the mood and distract them from their main focus. Just remember that you can do anything to help always, it just depends on how hard you try.

I know it can be difficult to react when you're scared of being bullied yourself. That fear, unfortunately, is in a lot of people. You can report the bullying to someone of higher authority while explaining that you'd rather remain anonymous. That's one way of doing it. Keep in mind that the victim must feel very lonely being picked on like that and having someone who supports them can mean so much. Fear shouldn't silence you. It's good of you to reach out for advice. Bullying is a serious thing that can leave someone scarred for life.

You can be a up stander and call for a teacher or an adults help at school or even a counselors help.

A bully is bad but a bully accomplice is the worst. Good thought, trying to help people. You can stand up to the bully. Or get friends to help.

That's a rough situation. It can be helpful to tell a nearby adult what is happening so that they can end the bullying and you don't have to worry about being bullied as well.

I think the focus should be put on the bullies, hit the problem by the source... NORMALLY the bully is going throw something, to where they pray and attack the "weak"... If there is a group, motivate the ring leader. FIGHT NEGATIVITY, WITH CARE...

Be brave and confident. Even if you have an intimidation, you can't do anything. So just defend bravely

That is tricky but possible. You can get someone from the outside to get involved. You can call the emergency lines and let them know that someone is getting bullied.
