Talk Description
 This study explores the resilience and family social support mechanisms that help children who are victims of bullying adapt to their school and community environments. The research is based on the principles of resilience and the role of family social support. A quantitative method was employed, surveying 513 junior high school students in East Java. The findings reveal that bullying affects both male and female students and is particularly prevalent in school settings. In response to bullying, children develop several adaptation strategies: they build self-confidence, learn to remain calm and self-control, choose to stay in the same school, engage positively with peers, and actively avoid confrontations with bullies. Most respondents reported receiving support from their families, which included guidance on not retaliating and advice to report incidents to school authorities or law enforcement.  Keywords: Bullying, Resilience, Adaptation Mechanisms, Social Support
