Quiz

Reflect

In this episode, Scooter needs help from a true friend to help him with a bully. If you heard that a bully was planning to hurt someone, what would you do about it? Would you pretend you didn't know about it? Would you tell someone else? Would you face the bully with others?

Someday you may face a bully just like Jonathan did. You will have the same decision to make about what to do. If you do, be sure to let an adult know about what’s going on. Also, it’s important to be a good friend to the person who is being bullied. They probably need a good friend! You can tell someone who is being mean to stop it. You and the person being bullied can then walk away together. You don’t want to let a bully hurt others. But no one should have to face a bully alone.

Want to dig deeper about being a good friend? Read Ecclesiastes 4:9-12, Luke 6:31 and John 15:12-15
