HappyTownTiger made a thread about his son being bullied via social media, and it got me wondering if any of yall are parents to a bully. Did you find out from the school or your child? How did you handle it? Has your child changed his/her ways?

Mine are compassionate bro. Spanking made them kind. The more I beat them, the more compassionate they become.

I wouldn't put up with it. Bullies are typically raised by assholes (or parents who are uninvolved or in denial). Lots of parents tend to make excuses for their kids' behavior unfortunately.

My kid isn't a target, although his friends rib him about his stuttering. If Taekwondo hadn't transformed him physically (not to mention the major confidence boost), he was well on his way to being a big target for bullies. Now he has to worry more about people wanting to fight him because he's a martial arts badass.

My 4 year old seems to be a bully to girls and gets bullied by boys. We have to deal with her often getting reports of her pushing people down. She tells on herself as well in "what did you do today" conversations. She's aggressive and scrappy.

We talk to her and there are consequences about it. I don't think she truly gets it yet but she's getting there.

When I was a kid I was a bit of a bully. My parents put me in a martial arts program that stressed morals, defending the weak, not fighting people you know can't beat you, etc. The instructors were fascinating to me and I went all in on what they preached. I feel like it helped me significantly in social development. I'll do something similar with my kid.

All kidding aside I have raised 3 compassionate respectful teens so I would say no but if I found out they were bullying I would have a very eye opening talk with them.

Out of all my kids, the only one I love is a bully. The others are little more than seldom thought of regrets.

Life is about being a bully or being bullied.

Seriously, I don't like being called a bully because I'm so much worst.

I don't see much of that at our school. Most of the kids are either, short, fat, geeky, or have self confidence issues. Or in most cases, all of the above. Don't see many discipline problem kids. Their parents don't usually give a frick enough to bother.
