I do not think so. More violence is not productive. Also, chances are you might get beaten up. YOu could talk to your parents, friends, surperiors, or teachers or a councelor if you are still in school. Just don't let a conflict escalate even more!

Violence is never the answer. You are sinking the bully's level if you go to violence. Try and talk.

Violence is never the answer. You should talk to a trusted adult like your parents, a teacher, a sibling, or a counselor. Things will get better, but not with violence.

Confronting a bully with violence is never a valid or smart option. Bullies are bullies in the first place because they feel hurt in their personal lives. There are always things you can do, as well. Telling an adult is by far the easiest and most rational thing you can do. It raises awareness, puts more people on your team, and protects you. Don't "fight" a bully alone!

Don't feed fire with fire, it simply creates a bigger flame. Communication is key! A bully usually feels alone and isolated in his/her feelings as bullying is a way to mask their own insecurities and depression in life. Compassion and communication helps wonders! There's many ways you can approach a bully to let him/her know about this app in a calm respectful fashion or even talking to him/her as we all need someone to talk to.

We would never condone violence. The best way is to seek help from a peer and try and get support. It can be mentally draining I know this well, but rising above it and showing them you will not accept their behavious is the best thing, not easy but if you do not allow them to hurt you then they cant

No you should never resort to violence. Violnece is never acceptable no matter what the circumstance is. It is also important not to sink to the same lever as the bully.

Violence is not the answer, it is a very last resort. If your bully is being physically violent toward you, you have the right to defend yourself. Don't go looking for trouble though. Then you become the bully!

No it isn't a valid option. Unless it is self defense. No matter what violence is never the answer.

Violence is never the answer. When it comes to confronting a bully, do it verbally and if you think that's not going to help much and make things worse turn it into an intervention for the bully. Never stand alone when defending yourself against a bully. The only time I feel that violence is necessary in any type of situation/confrontation is if it's self defense.
