One thing that happened in the old days when I went to school was some good ol "Arse Kicking" when kids were bullied most of the time the bullies would eventually get there arse handed to them by the bullied kid.... Now a days the bullied kid would get punished for fighting back! and that's a dam shame.... My 13 yr old son was just harassed by a kid in his school and I told him the next time he does it to nail the kid as hard as he can right in his face and you know what came out of my 16 yr old sons mouth? "Don't do it in school because he will get in deep trouble" That is these kids mind frame right now and mostly why a good majority of them don't fight back..... I personally could care less what kind of trouble my son gets into for punching a bully in the face and I will stand beside him 110% the whole way too! My oldest son (16) was in pre-school and this red neck kid with a mullet pushed him down every dam day on the playground so I told him the next time he does it get back up and punch him square in the face, the next day the kid punched him down and Brenden leveled him.... That was the LAST time he fooled with him and then every time he seen him outside of school he was "Hi Brenden" LOL
I think the "Bullying" needs more policing and the kids who are bullied to the point of protecting themselves should not get in trouble at all. They are just standing up for themselves but in today's society they are scared to end up punished... SAD!
