Anger Management Using Norman Cotterell’s 7-Step Model

Scenario 1: Bullying in Class

A classmate keeps throwing things at you in class and calling you names. The teacher doesn’t notice, and everyone laughs.

Scenario 2: Protecting a Friend

You see your close friend being picked on by older students in the hallway. You feel upset and want to defend them, but you’re not sure how.

Scenario 3: Betrayal by a Friend

You find out that someone you trusted shared one of your secrets with other students, and now people are gossiping about you.

Scenario 4: Unfair Treatment by Teacher

The teacher assumes you started a fight because you’re quiet and don’t defend yourself, but it was actually another student who started it.

Scenario 5: Peer Pressure

Some classmates pressure you to skip school with them. When you say no, they call you weak and laugh.

Scenario 6: Parent Conflict

After you get in trouble at school, your parent immediately assumes you were at fault without listening to your side of the story.

Scenario 7: Group Fight

A group of students tries to start a fight with you after school.

Scenario 8: Losing Respect

You work hard to do the right thing, but other classmates keep making fun of you for being “too serious.”
