flowerpower- I think Demi Lovato started an organization against bullying. I don’t remember the name but it was in my magazine. I agree with this whole bullying thing. I used to get maded fun of my the “popular” girls in elementary school. My parents would just say that “kids will always tease kids”. in my mind, I’m like that doesn’t make it right. Name-calling can only go to far. But nowadays at my high school if you are being bullied you should go to the counselor. Then there is this whole procedure: Counselor talks to the bully, continues, then she calls home, continues, she gets expelled, then I think she or he has to transfer schools.

When the procedure against bullies doesn’t work (which is a good percentage of the time)…..I say….try everything first to avoid the confrontations……if all else fails……
DECKEM!!!!
My youngest had a ruthless kid after him…..he’s restrained the bully twice……in headlocks….NOW…this kid avoids him like the plague…..he didn’t need to deck him…..the headlock restraint was enough……
Bullies pick on peeps they think they can ‘take on’……
when you prove them wrong….they stop.
It’s the ‘top dog’ effect…..we need to show them WE are NOT the ‘weak’ link…..
Bullies pick on peeps they perceive as the ‘weakest’ link…..
Once we prove otherwise…..they stop!
Like I said…..avoid it at alll costs…..LAST RESORT TOTALLY……but if it get’s to the point of no other choices…..I say….dig up the MOJO and layemout!

I know I’ve told this story before but in 2nd grade I was the youngest and smallest child, and this gal kept beating me up daily, and I was ASHAMED of it. Finally she broke my jaw with a coke bottle and the swelling brought this ting to a head.
My teacher and my parents “trivalized” this whole thing, and even my step father went along with this, telling me I must “forgive” her BECAUSE she was traumatized at home (she was a kid from a poor family and there were 21 kids in the family, literally!) and so she came to school and picked on someone she could beat up. OK she had a hard life, but why did I HAVE TO “not be mad at her”? How come MY feelings weren’t important and I had to “make up to HER” and she never once acknowledged she did it or was sorry either?
“Little Oxy” was not protected and was taught to EXPECT that others would hurt them, and that “Little Oxy” had to be kind and forgiving and couldn’t be ANGRY because “Little Oxy” had to have sympathy and empathy for these DEPRIVED other children who took their pain out on “Little Oxy” “Little Oxy”s feelings were NOT important.
HORSE HOCKEY! Bullying in WRONG, and not validating the feelikngs of the bullied, but excusing the bully is WRONG!
Just because I have been treated badly doesn’t give me a PASS to treat others badly! And when others treat me badly I do not have to FEEL SORRY FOR THEM.
I got the lesson in second grade, but I didn’t pass the test for 55 years!

and here’s a lesson to live by:
‘And when others treat me badly I do not have to FEEL SORRY FOR THEM.’
simple. way too simple for me in the past. but i’ll get it.

Dear onestep,
Yea, it’s always those ‘SIMPLE LESSONS’ we don’t get in school, we learn calculus and chemistry and trig, but we FLUNK the simple ones.

Hi all,
WHY is the school not named? Where was the adult supervision – or were they TAPING the incidents in order to sell DVD’s of this appalling crime. WHO instigated this? How could it have gone on for so long with so many kids involved as aggressors against this child, and ‘not one of them’ spilled the beans~
TWEAK-Y story – where’s a nice AK47 when ya need one? (jk – I’m not violent), but those people that allowed this to happen, and then to happen AGAIN – need full on “LEAD Therapy!”
