I truely fill bad for the little guy. HE didnt ask to be born the way he was. He just wants to be like any other kid to be able to play and have friends. Its a sad world we live in when your judged before people even get to know you.

I hope this kid gets all of the support he needs just to be happy and find peace. My son went through bullying issues a few years ago, and it has completely changed his attitude toward other people. I get upset and, frankly, pissed at what I feel like that experience robbed him of for life.
Now, that all being said, and because this is the OT...
A dwarf from Oz? I thought they only had munchkins.

Won't lie, kids are fricking mean to each other. I see it every fricking day and the fact they get on these apps and continue the shite is horrible.

Slight difference between being a redhead and being a dwarf.
Most of the responses on this thread are sickening.

Gosh damn that is hard to watch.
If that was my kid, I would change schools and get my baby some counseling ASAP...and counseling for myself.
fricking heartbreaking
I think the mom is desperate and that is the reason for the video....that kid needs a hug....and support from his family.

That mother is clearly at her wits end, and doesn’t know what else to do to help her son. I feel sorry for those of you judging her. It must suck to be so stupid that you can’t see what’s really going on.

Bruh she should be judged. She’s capitalizing on her sons most terrible and intimate moment with her, posting on the internet for the world to see, giving a lecture to other people out there instead of consoling her son who needs her, and basically just being a god awful attention whore.
Frick her

How about never force him into the meat grinder again day after day?
She daily sends him to a place filled with people who want to destroy him.
This is so obvious it blows my mind nobody says it but me.
What is more fundamental than protecting our children? She is doing the exact opposite. “Every fricking day” according to her.

You of all people should know better. You’re a gnome!
Seriously though, you think he ran up crying and all she did was whip her phone out to film? Think beyond the 30 seconds of that video you watched. How do you know she didn’t console him first? Another post in this thread mentioned this has been going on for as much as 4 years. If I felt helpless in protecting my child after 4 years I just might turn to the internet too. Have some compassion for both of them. It isn’t that hard to stop being an idiot.

I know bullying is an issue.. And that sucks, but look.. Kids are going to bully. That's just the way it is. We need to stop telling everyone who gets bullied that they are a victim & teach them to be confident and how to defend themselves. And don't ever let someone get the best of you.
I am not trying to sound like a hard arse and I know each situation is different, but you got the bullies, the followers and those who get bullied. You keep checking a bully, at some point he will break.

I don’t, but I know moms like him so I’m using my past experience to draw a conclusion about her.

the issue is.....what exactly can you do to stop 9 year olds from bullying a child with dwarfism? It's horrible behavior, but 9 is still young.
He can buy a chainsaw now with all of that money

The real way to beat bullying is to embrace. You don't even have to lay a hand on someone.

It might make him famous, and that could make him happy. Maybe he'll become a celebrity. He'll start acting, landing the lead role in the new Willow. He'll start drowning in normal sized pussy and develop a trendy coke habit. This kid's gonna be a star.
Love the Stonehog!!
Eff the bullies with a red hot poker to the arse.

Sure, whatever. I have psoriasis, and a rumor spread it around school that I was afflicted with a communicable disease, turning everyone else into "scaly monsters". It wasn't so much the constant words, being pushed into lockers by kids covering their hands, or the people just staring at me open mouthed... It was the isolation. When you are bullied that badly, nobody wants to be associated with you. You eat lunch alone, nobody talks to you at anything approaching a social level, and there's nobody to play with at recess.
As an adult, I get it, kids suck. For the life of me, I will never understand how the teachers didn't get involved. I was a dumb kid who just assumed the world was a horrible place and after I told a couple of teachers and nothing changed, I didn't know where to go. I finally went to my parents and just laid it all out, and luckily it coincided with my dad moving for work.
Tldr sometimes being strong just isn't enough.

I'd kick the shite out of a whole busload of 9yo for that kid. This is when Crocodile Dundee needs to put on his croc cape and become the Australian superhero that everyone knows he can be.
