School Bullying

[MrFrench]

What did you expect from this? beaking off, back and forth doesn't stop bullying, it encourages the power struggle that the bully wants. You getting involved just encouraged it. You actually became the role model bully as you beaked off to the kids (you are big and wanted to exert your power over them) and then you beaked the mom (exerting power over her) and eventually hit the hubby (exerting power over him). You are a bully.

I'd honestly bet that your son was the aggressor, based solely on your actions in this story. They learn it from their parents.

Macka did say that his son started the problem and that he disciplined him alone. Maybe I'm missing something? I usually agree with most things you post.

As for kids learning from their parents....hopefully those other kids picked up that if you go beaking and sticking your nose where it doesn't belong you can get stung.

I am actually an elementary school teacher, I just get really fed up with parent's and their bully attitudes and not expecting kids to take and learn from it. To me this rant is just an asshole being a bigger asshole around his kid and other kids.

vakkar,

I was disciplining my kid for his unnacceptable behaviour. The kids he was with were on the verge of getting physical, their body language, their verbal language and the fact they had circled the kid in question are pretty good indicators that they were bullying. I only talked to my son at first and the kids turned on him. I told them to leave. No swearing, no yelling. The mother of the one child came to me, ranting. I was using a calm voice, and she was the one getting her blood up. She called the police, she made the complaint. Her fat husband came up to me, and shoved me. I defended myself. What is so wrong with that?
As a school teacher you sure like to label people. For those that know me in person, know I am a mild guy, with a bent sense of humour.

You did good Macka... why the lady would try to argue with you for sticking up for the young kid and then try to tell you how to disipline your own is beyond me.. and fat ass had it coming too, lol.

The thread brought back a funny memory. When i was in grade 7 I moved to the other side of town. i moved in the summer and the kids on the street took to making fun of me, i had a slight speech impediment back then. So the pack would tease me and chase me down every chance they got. it was hard enough going to a new school, but the pack would make fun of me on the bus, on lunch ect ect....

This went on for a couple weeks and i finally had it.. i got off the bus in the morning and waited for the biggest guy in the pack to get off... and I layed a beating on him in front of all his buddies... left him crying on the ground, lol.

School policies may change.... zero tolerance for violence ect... but the way to stop a bully will never change.

I find now with my kids that girls are much worse at singling out other girls and picking on them than boys ever are.

With boys there's a pecking order which is usually ended with fists involved.

Girls don't fight (generally) so it becomes difficult to stop girl bullies as you can't punch the shit out of them.

Read your rant and then re-read your post. Either the rant is a shit-head bravado untruth or your updated post is a soften the blow bitch back down statement.

I won't bother to figure out which is which.

yea I pull in the reigns on my kid, tell the other kids to butt out, have a mother freak on me for telling her kid to back off, she gets the police and her husband involved because she makes me mad enough to swear at her for being stupid and getting up in my face. I'm supposed to take some shit from a woman because she is a woman? I in this day and age have to be polite to her? She uses profanity from the get go when her kid is asked to leave without profanity? Her husband assaults me and I have to take it? You then have to call me a liar? What would you do in that situation? I think you have been neutered by society.

You want a real answer?

Grab your kid and walk away. Would of avoided everything that escalated beyond that. You have the court date and ****ed up kid, not them. Fix yourself instead of yelling, screaming and shoving others in hopes to "fix" everything that does not tickle your fancy at that moment.
