This simple 20-25 minute 1-act play allows an almost unlimited number of elementary and middle school children to protest bullying by name calling. It opens with students carrying protest signs, such as "No more hurting people" and "Down with teasers." Students are encouraged to think up new ideas for their signs.

Bullying becomes illegal with culprits sentenced to a learning school in the forest. Three students are found guilty. During a storm they have a surreal experience similar to Scrooge's Ghost of the Future. They realize that their actions have alienated everyone except their parents. As they "come to," all the students arrive with their posters. They agree that a person tempted to say something bad should remember, "Just Don't Say It!"

Simple, flexible set, modern clothes.
