4. Enroll your kid in judo or jiu-jitsu to gain self-confidence, as well as to kick the other kid's arse if it comes down to it.

We don't allow social media. It's bad enough at school.

I think I'm going this route for my kid. Got a long way cause she's a baby now. Who knows what'll be out by then.

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.

What age? Do they have smart phones, tablets or computer access?

From what source did you obtain this information?

14. Has a gen 1 iPhone that he can use to text approved friends. He turns it in at 9:00 and gets it back after school. Doesn't have an email address. We don't have tablets. Computer broken but will be limited when we get it up again. I just don't see why its that big of a deal. But I don't believe kids need all that crap.

Give me a break. Parents can't control their kids social media so it's up to the school to be the parents.

Pay an eighth grader to beat his arse. Or kick his dad's arse.

Eta: chances are your 14 year old has some sort of social media profile.

Yes, they do. But, it's not going to happen in junior high. No point in even bothering with it at thus young age IMO. We didn't have those things and learned how to handle it later on as the technology evolved. I just don't believe on this constant access people have to kids.

1. Screenshot everything
2. Call the parents and feel them out. They may have no idea.
3. Call the school and use the words "cyber bullying". They should be scares of lawsuits an bad pr. Let them know you have screen shots.
4. Let your kid earn a suspension if nothing else works. It might take this for the admin to acknowledge.

This is why my son isn't on social media. We openly mock it in the house and made it not cool from the time he was young. I'd yank his account, tell his teacher & principal what's going on and tell my son to defend himself if ever pushed to the point he felt it was necessary.
A kid on my son's grade was known for this crap last year. I told my kid that the first time it happened to tell the guy to let it go. The second time he had a right to fight back. Told the principal that is she couldn't protect my son, he would protect himself and not to call me to pick him up when it happened. The little jerk wasn't allowed recess the rest of the year.

They use them in school and know how use the programs that they'll need for jobs in the future. The rest of the crap is not necessary. But to each their own.

My kid won't be using social media either.
BUT
All the other kids do. They pass info and gossip after school but it all comes back to school.
Getting of of social media won't help this kid. If anything he will be more frustrated bc he won't understand what's going on.

I know this is OT cliche , but, my dad told me to fight / punch them. And I did. And the bullying stopped
One strong punch usually gets the point across. Best of luck

Time to teach your kid the art of humiliating trolling. Tell him to be vicious, in a non-threatening way. Also teach him to take and give a punch.
A mean wit with a mean right hook will get you through life in this world.

Getting rid f social media keeps him from checking up on what the kids saying constantly and worrying about it. His friends will tell him what was said. Get the school involved, stand up to the guy in person and the guy will move along to someone else eventually.
