re: OT dads, how do you deal with bullying?

Can America please stop with all of the bullying nonsense. First off, the instagram/ cyber bullying is the definition of "pussyfying America". Tell him to get off the social network or delete the guys comments. If he continues to do so, most kids wont think its cool and will just be embarrassed for the bully.

If the bully approaches your kid, tell him to teach the bully a lesson. Frick the zero tolerance rule. If you can prove the kid has been bullying him on the internet and is then confronted in person, no way the school should punish him. If they do, so be it. A suspension is a form of punishment by the school that is only as bad as the parent makes it for the kid while he is suspended. Unless of course there are multiple suspensions which result in expulsion.

Not only will the bully continue to pick on your kid, but by him not standing his ground, he makes himself a prime target for other kids down the road.
