Why is it easier to accept the bullying in the hopes it will go away, rather than stand up against it?

It's always difficult to do the right thing. Just like it's easier to float down a river than it is to swim against the current.

I think its easier to accept bullying rather than stand up against it because you're scared to stand up against a bully which is 100% understandable. That's why its so much easier to stand up to someone when you have friends behind you to defend you :)

Standing up is really hard! Bullies convince us that something is wrong with us, which makes it really difficult to have the confidence to tel them to stop. If you want to stop being bullied, it can help to practice with a friend, family member, pet, or in your mirror first. Practice defending yourself, and always remind yourself that you do matter. Eventually, you'll gain the confidence to speak up.

It takes a lot of courage to stand up to bullying. Don't forget the easy way is not always the best way.

When going through tough times, it's easier to stay in an uncomfortable but known situation, rather than try to change things and not be sure of the outcome. We are often scared things might get worse. But it's always worth it to stand up against something that brings you down, especially bullying.

Because they want attention so if you don't give them attention, maybe they'll stop. But never accept it talk about it to your teachers.

I think a lot of people think that bullying will go away after a while, but most of the cases, it just gets worse and more rough. People are usually afraid that if they get up on their feet, bullies will be more rude to them.

It is easier to accept it than standing up because you don't want to get yourself in trouble or thinking afterward they'll target you again and this is why you tend to avoid the option to seek help when you can.
