Buy some heroin and tell your son to plant it on the kid. Then call the police and report the bully. Be sure to call from a pay phone so they can't trace the call back you.

Damn, is this real? Have we become such pussies that one or two directed blows and a bloody nose can't set things right anymore? Something about being quiet and carrying part of a tree comes to mind.

Real life Internet bullying is fricking insane. It's changing the game. You can't escape it by leaving school like you used to. I'd suggest asking him to delete his Facebook and instagram and all that.

You don't need that stupid bullshite.

My son is a 6th grader, and younger than kids in his own grade. A 7th grader is wearing him out on social media because his little GF thinks my boy is cute. It's ridiculous, but I hate to see him hurt. He's embarrassed, but not fearful of the kid.
When I was young, the bullies could be ignored, but now they take it to Instagram. Also, you could stand up and smoke or get smoked and end it. Zero tolerance took care of that.
Any advice? Be kind.



I feel old, because I have an instagram, I just never used it.

I am so glad in my day, cell phones were still rare in school. And passing notes was how you got info out.

If your son popped him one good time in the nose, I think it would get the point across. My question is, is there any way he could claim self defense and not get expelled/suspended, should it come to that?

Really needed an example of what was posted, but I'd have your son post one cool message then take a month off instagram. If the issue is on that site, you need to address is on that site:

"Jealous people are annoying me, done with this site for awhile. If you have something to say, come see me man to man."

Then post is a gif of a mic drop, or some guy looking serious into the camera.


You have to get alpha. Show tech savvy and coolness. When I see moms and pushover dads giving advice online it makes me

The kid is a kid in sixth grade. So he gets suspended a couple days.

Tell him to whip that guys arse, kiss his girl. Then take a couple days off work when he is suspended and take the little guy golfing.

Life is terrible and it's going to get worse. It's an important lesson for children to learn at an early age and bullying is a catalyst for such a lesson. Let it run its course and just hope the little guy gets something out of it.

If your son gets it at school, then tell him to knock the kid out. It only takes one arse whoopin to make a bully stop. It'll also be a sign to the other potential bullies not to mess with him.

But the bigger issue is why the hell does he have instagram in the 6th grade? Does he have an iphone too? I think that's a problem right there. Kids need to hang out with friends in person and do things outside. Otherwise he'll turn into a socially awkward weirdo that puts pictures of his cat on reddit.

Kids today would have never made it 5 minutes 30 plus years ago. The internet and social media have ruined people today. Such babies.

Walk away whenever you can. When that is not an option fight back and win.


Your son can walk away from the internet and laugh at the guy that thinks it is affecting him.

When my son was in 3rd grade, one older kid was notorious for bullying. He couldn't be suspended or expelled because of his "exceptionality. Even the principal was afraid of him.

it was my experience that the school should be informed and they will contact the bullies parents, I promise you they cannot and will not ignore it, there are legal ramifications now a days. Been a while since my kids were in middle school but it definitely nipped that crap in the butt.
