Could you please check this?

Hi teachers. Could you please check this and tell me how you would write it so it sounds perfectly natural?


Daughter: He's not bullying me anymore.

Mom: Okay. But if he bothers you again then don't put up with it, OK? You shouldn't be afraid to hit back.

Your wording seems almost okay to me. Personally, I would put it thus: Daughter: I’m not going to let him bully me anymore. Mom: Okay, but if he does, don’t put up with it, OK?

  • You shouldn't be afraid to hit him back.
  • Note that "Bothering" doesn’t mean he hit her; he could be just making fun of her hair or a pimple or whatever; that is bullying, but now you seem to be speaking of physical abuse!
