  • The old saying 'Sticks and stones may break my bones, but words will never hurt me' is the way you should handle this. The person who is verbally bullying you has the problem and not you. Try to stay away from the person who is bullying you and ignore what they say. Remember, silently most people who hear the verbal bullying from this person look down upon them, but will wonder why you sit there and take it. If you are going steady then get rid of them! If you are married then realize you are in control of your life and let them know in plain English that you are not going to take their verbal abuse any longer and either seek counseling for it or separate or divorce them.

Is it legal for a teacher to call a student stupid?

Being called names is a form of verbal abuse. Professionals should not verbally abuse. However, teachers are also human and often face great pressures and student abuse. So while the teacher should be reported, school administrators might only give a minor verbal warning to the teacher. Try to talk to the teacher first. He or she just might apologize--maybe they had a bad day. If talking to the teacher doesn't resolve the problem, you can report it. However, you should also be sure your own words and behavior are respectful and be able to put yourself in others' shoes. If you acted in a "stupid" manner, you may need to apologize. But you shouldn't be called stupid.
