Okay, so during my school year, I have always been there since Kindergarten. I know people from my class to those who had left. I've been friendly with almost everyone and them treating me the same. Now my class has always been small, 15-17 kids at the most. During 5th grade, 4-5 students joined my class.
This girl, I didn't know her that well over the years, but she seemed to be a little aggressive. She's nice and all, a real friend to people, though she'll joke about things she doesn't mean. People have been gossiping behind her back while insulting her during lunch. Those people around her don't even stop the other bullies, they just laugh along.
At first I did too, but as I got older, I really regretted it. She has been a great friend this year to me, and I've been hanging out with her often. Though the bullying still didn't stop. She doesn't go to teachers, and just stays quiet. She has friends of her own, but I'm sick of seeing her get mentally bullied like this. I don't know how to stop it, I don't laugh anymore, but I also don't say anything. I'm pretty shy and don't know how to approach people often. They'll just smart mouth me, and I won't know what to say. Please, what should I do?
Thanks for reading this.

This.. is a difficult one for me. Mainly because I usually just go to the people who talk behind her back. No one badmouths my friends, ya know? ninja But it's not good to pick fights, so let's cross out that one. Anyway... From what it sounds, maybe you should talk to her, and try telling her in a nice, friendly, non-patronizing way to be more careful with what she says. That not everyone appreciates the jokes she makes, and all that.
Or just be a good friend to her. Maybe she really doesn't mind being talked about, as long as she had great friends. Some people are like that, I don't really care about other people badmouthing me as long as I still have got my best friends, and they aren't backstabbers.
Bullying isn't something you can stop that easily. sad Whatever you choose to do though, I wish you the best of luck.

if you weren't a shy person, i would say just tell them to stop. im shy to, but if i see some1 getting bullied, i push the shyness away. i agree with lune, just be a good friend to her, but if you hear people bullying her behind her back, i guess just make it known in some less obvious way, that they need to stfu. im not sure wat else to say, seeing as i would beat the crap out of the person talking about her. like lune said, maybe she just needs a good friend, which u can be for her.

The thing is, sometimes standing up to them can make the bullying worse. Especially if you're usually the shy and quiet one. They may stop bullying your friend, but start picking on you. Or on you both. That's the problem with bullies. D:
