    Unfortunately for me when I tried to ignore my bullies in school, I got the day lights knocked out of me. I tried ignoring them and walking away, this just lead to them grabbing my backpack and pulling me off my feet, then either stomping on me or beating me with their fists.



    Bullying to some extend went on for 12 years for me, I actually got even in the 7th grade with 2 of them. They made the mistake of one on one, and I won for a change. But in 7th-12th grades the PE Teachers started bullying me, they considered it motivation to get me to run faster. But when you have undiagnosed asthma, it is hard to run when you can't breathe. I had one PE Teacher tell me that I was not worthy of being a man or a boy as the girls could all out run me, and since the girls can out run you or not even one of them. This PE teacher called me a sissy the entire year! He never used my real name, just called out "Sissy" when he referred to me.



    Some days I think I should have sued the school for allowing this to happen, but this just isn't in my nature. I tend to walk away from everything and hope for the best. I don't like confrontation.

    And these guys grow up and become abusers, takes a Real Man to be such I guess. How utterly pathetic. As far as the Principle is concerned sometimes their hands are tied---"If you as much as scold my precious little boy, I will have your job!" It is such a shame how parents can be so blinded by their own kids--A kid is not a grown-up and needs to be monitored. Every child is capable of good as well as bad, the parent who doesn't realize this is in self denial or completely out of touch with reality. That is why 10 year olds don't drive cars or go out drinking, someone is watching and sometimes a law needs to be enacted as well. Make the parents be responsible for their kids' action, people are held accountable on their dogs, so why not, and make the punishment fit the crime. I feel many would give up their "Good Times" and be more responsible as parents if they knew they'd be held accountable. Parenting is not a hobby, it is full time work without breaks, bonuses, and perks. It can be rewarding and its not easy but if done right the results can be life changing for the better.

    I know everything that I said and I am aware of everything you said, that's the reason why I said...



    "t personally bothers me that kids are being coddled these days, when it comes to bullies. Instead of "banning against bullies"...why not help the kid with their own self esteem? Give them the knowledge to know that these "bullies" are actually a lot weaker than they are.



    Tell them words from a complete stranger or someone they do not know, shouldn't hurt."

    Yes its true but you don't realise that when you're younger and you're not emotionally mature enough to deal with the insults, the damage is being done and then, for most people, its too late when you do realise. People just should not be bullies in the first place.
