Jenna Ortega Shares Some Advice On What To Do If You See Someone Being Bullied

“Let’s stop bullying together, not just watch from the sidelines,” the actress says.

It’s never easy to witness someone being bullied. But it may be even MORE challenging to know exactly what you can do to step in and help. But “Stuck In the Middle” actress Jenna Ortega may be able to inspire you to get involved in any way you can.

The Disney Channel star had to reach out when she came across a horrible Twitter video that captured a Florida high schooler getting bullied at school, apparently for being Muslim. Unfortunately, the minute-long clip appears to show an entire group of students ganging up on her, but not many knowing how to step into the situation to her defense.

“This is heartbreaking, and its so upsetting to see it isnt being brought up in the news,” Jenna tweeted, re-sharing the video. “We’ve got to protect 1 another! if u see something wrong, do something about it. dont record it on ur phone so u can show ur friends. lets stop bullying together, not just watch from the sidelines.”
