Assume They’re Kidding: Teasing vs taunting

Teasing and taunting are two very different things, and in this episode I’ll teach you how to tell the difference between them and how to handle both…luckily for you it’s the same strategy.

This is a multi layered lesson. To tell the difference between teasing and taunting and turn taunting around, first I’d like you to understand the importance of emotional self control.

With what I’m about to tell you and some practice you will Get better and better at not reacting. Reacting is bully food. Any time you react, the bully has control over you, which is what they want.

When you don’t react, you show you are above them. At a higher status. People can’t get to you easily. People can feel safe being honest and real with you because you can handle what they dish out good and bad.
