Have you ever said something about someone without knowing the info or someone said something about you? If you have, did you know if it was true or not? Or did they say something about you? You say it isn’t true but they don’t believe you. That can probably form a type of bullying too. We read a book called The Lion, the Witch, and the Wardrobe and I remember three parts that would connect and they are, when Edmund said that Lucy was lying about the wardrobe, your family and friends would not want to talk to you, ask someone wise if you think you should believe them.

When Edmund said Lucy was lying about the wardrobe, Edmund didn’t know for sure if she was lying or not. He told everybody he was right and Lucy wasn’t. Lucy never lied and and Edmund always lied. But somehow they believed Edmund. When Edmund found out that Lucy was right he must have felt so humiliated.

Your family and friends would never want to talk to you. They would think that if they said something they would think that Edmund (or anybody) would make fun of you. This happened to Edmund. Lucy didn’t talk to Edmund because she was mad and didn’t trust Edmund. If I was Edmund, and I was in that case, I would feel horrible.

You should go to see someone and ask if they think that what they are saying is true. When they start to talk you might believe them more. It might stop you from gossiping, too. This happened when all the kids except Lucy went to go and ask the professor if he knew anything and when they did they all found Narnia and just by asking someone they found a whole different world.

So why should you not say something if you don’t know the whole info? Because you wouldn’t be trusted anymore, no one would talk to you, and you should ask someone wise about what they are saying.
