Bullying....

[SteveForever]

You were always a big tall guy I'm sure and never had to
deal with bullying so really I don't see how you'd be qualified to make this call.

I was 5'10 and 110 pounds when I entered high school, and got more than my share of harassment. Additionally, I grew up in a vastly hispanic area loaded with gangs, and took more than a few beatings because I was white, 2 that landed me in the Emergency Room. Lastly, I was raised in a single parent household with my mom, and my dad died when I was 14, leaving me with no male influence. I marched my ass to the local gym and learned how to box, took 2 years of karate and started lifting weights. The bullshit stopped real soon after. But I never once contemplated suicide or shooting up a school. I'm just not a pussy and could never do something so selfish to my mother.

p.s. you aren't a Latino? hmmm....I thought you were....

My handle would be Saint Juan, if that were the case.

Your approach sucks. I'll share the male (correct) way of dealing with shit like this. I dated a girl for almost 7 years and helped raise her daughter. When she was seven she came home and said Brody was "grabbing her privates on the playground." This little motherfucker was given one chance. His parents were informed, the teacher was informed and the principal was informed. Meanwhile, like many times before, Rachel was reminded that no one, under any circumstances, touches, grabs, talks about or fucking thinks about your privates. With God as my witness, we practiced the correct way to punch, how to get your entire body into it and which part of the fist makes contact with the target (the first 2 knuckles). That little hillbilly fuck made the mistake of doing it again and was just about knocked out. His eye was a nice deep, dark purple and almost completely shut. Needless to say, we were called into the principal's office and amid threats of expulsion, I took full credit for the proper corrective measure that was used. Like most ovary-toting beings, my ex was pretty pissed ... but she got over it. That's how you handle bullying/shenanigans.

To each their own. Each situation is different. When you have an older boy picking on a younger boy I really don't think teaching the kid "kick his ass, Seabass" is entirely necessary. Of course having the school administration and the other child's parents made aware of the situation and that rigamarole chain-of-command is default. But when the other kid's parent doesn't give a damn what their kid does, which is why they're bullying to begin with, then it comes down to having your child capable of standing on their own two feet. In the case of your situation self-defense is a very valuable lesson for any little girl to be taught, sometimes it's warranted. Kudos.

But I'm dealing with a 4'11 8 year old who weighs 115lbs of muscle and has a piss-mean streak as/is, so if I were to ever (mildly even) insinuate that physical defense was okay, well... you see where I'm going with this. Before you know it, some kid swipes a chicken nugget at lunch and Chase is sending them to the hospital. ...And that's a whole other problem! Cause/effect foresight is something us ovary-toting beings take pretty seriously.

I just had this conversation a few months back with my 8 year-old half brother. I was taking him to see that Karate Kid remake and while we were in the car talking about space and lizards and other things that fascinate little boys he slides into the discussion that he's getting bullied at school by a 5th grader. (He was at the time between 2nd and 3rd grade.) Apparently this kid picks on all of the lower grade kids and leaves the kids his age alone. He asked me why bullies are mean, what do you say to a formative child about that? I've always believed that honesty is best with kids; it's counter-productive to sugar-coat the world.

I asked him about the kid's parents, seems the father is a non-entity and the mother is one of those sorry types. I did my best (I hope) to explain to him that this bully kid is hurt and confused inside because he's not getting the love and attention at home that a child deserves and needs. So he acts out at school hurting others because that's the only thing he knows. That for him, any attention is better than none and he is trying to seek that out and at the same time the false sense of power he gets from the fear the younger kids have for him makes him feel more in control of his world.

This way, and now I've seen it's worked, my brother's fear of this bully is gone because he's been educated and that gives him the tools he needs to not be afraid of the bully. Of course, there's a side conversation about not taking crap from people in there... but that's another story.

It pretty much remains true no matter what age. Bullies bully for the attention because of a lack of self-worth and love. I just wish more parents could take a pro-active approach in their children's lives and save some of these pointless suicides. Suicides which also come from a perceived lack of self-worth and love.

Talk about going crazy for nothing. The male "(correct)" way of doing it isn't to go get your panties in a bunch and go on a parents/teacher/principal bitch fest. The ovary-toting beings always make big problems out of nothing and... uh... Sounds familiar, Nancy?

Maybe it's the overly sensitive intimate zones most people have in the States, but that sure as hell wouldn't be called bullying where I come from. Bullying is when someone picks on someone who's just shit out of luck in some way; be it mental, physical or social. They're kids; it's only natural they experiment and tease eachother.

And that explains why you said Lynn bullied you. ALL OF THE ABOVE! , Bingo !!!

Maybe you're a proponent of sexual molestation/harassment, be it mild or severe, but I'm not. And that's what it was. The parents, teacher and principal were informed of the problem because it's hard for parents and administration to fix a problem if they don't know it exists, asshole.

You fuck one kid up and the rest fall in line. Problem solved.

Is that assumption on your part due to an adaptive behavior the women in your life learned from being with you, to take a little nothing and make it big? You sound like quite the bitteris maximus, McFlurry.

Sexual molestation? The kid's name was Edward Scissorhands Jr. huh?

What the kid needed was someone who sat down and talked to him about it and explain to him not to fingerfucking his classmates. What he didn't need, and just wasted the teachers and principal's time, was a towering, pissed off manwoman and his/her lynchmob out to get him over a unimportant little shenanigan.

What adaptive behavior? GHB kinda smoothens the "adaptive" edges fortunately.

You're cherry picking my posts. I clearly included the term "harassment," but you conveniently left that out.

There was no lynch mob, and the parents and administration were informed so they could "talk to him about it and explain to him not to (be) finger-fucking his classmates." One or both failed, or he decided not to listen, and the ensuing result was a loud and clear message that resonated with him, as he never came near her again.


PS Your GHB response made me roar. Sick bastard.

I'm sure this is just due to a lack of your Larousse English to Derp Dictionary not arriving yet, but I was making the reference to women who are with you having to make something big out of something little anyway. Maybe I went too far around for the joke. Clearly I give you too much credit for having static women around you who would accept your shortcomings since it seems your ideal woman is made of vinyl, hotair, and disposable tube socks.

I doubt such a feat is possible given the high volume of traffic in that area. Much less that his neck and upper torso block access to his taintal regions. So, no.

I still think it sounds like you overreacted, but maybe it's a cultural thing. Poor kid isn't going to touch a girl for fear of haymakers from the little Chris Hansen/George Foreman chimaera it sounds like you're raising.

You try to hard to not like me, but you know; you do. Why? Sure as hell beats me. Is it my wit? Or my charm? Maybe it's the abs? We'd have fun. And the feeling you would have the next day, is easily curable with a round of antibiotics.

Not to mention that he's not going get much of a decent arc going anyway with that little tire valve he's been told is his penis. 2 feet should be a safe enough distance to stand.

Actually, we shouldn't make fun of him. SPS (small penis syndrome) is no laughing matter. We should host a fundraiser. Maybe if we help guys like him enhance their abilities, we could simultaneously shrink their need to overcompensate with monstrous egos and bad attitudes. Call it "Boners for Bastards"?

(parfy, you know i'm just kidding around... i'm sure that small penii are an accepted fact in your part of the world. nothing wrong with that. ^5)
