Being Bullied

[Johnny Stooge]

If a pencil doesn't work, go back with a compass point.

They're really handy.

o_O Fair enough, but you'd need to have nobody around, and that would make you a bit of a jerk too to be honest. Anyway, fair enough haha, it could work, but I've solved issues without violence every time.

AND OW, compass points O_O. I had a friend obsessed with them, and he stabbed everything haha. Nasty things.

Fighting is not an option. My father says if I ever fight again my punishment is not being able to play video games, get on the computer, or even watch tv and he said that the punishment would be permanent! The principal already knows about it and he wouldn't take me laying a hand on him when he didn't lay a hand on me first as self defense.

I've always been direct and got the person face to face and asked what their problem is. Often they're pretty timid and they just buckle in, with pretty pathetic reasons. I'm generally a very nice person, and you don't need to yell at them, but it would help if you knew their motive, if there is one. In this case though I don't think that would work. Soo..

Second, parents can help. You need a happy life outside of school, and if you can have support from all angles it is a big confidence boost. For me, friends have always been the people to turn to, because if you're alone in this, you're vulnerable. Talking about your issues is a good way to get things off your shoulders.

The teachers do seem to care but are not actually doing anything about it. Counselling and so forth could work, but it sounds like he genuinely needs to be kicked out of the school. I certainly think his parents need to get involved, and be called in to speak with the school. That guy has issues, and from what it sounds, he's totally not worth it.

I know I've probably just repeated everything, but hey.. that's my take ^^'. I hope it goes well for you.

1. I don't remember if I've stated it in this thread, but I've tried talking to this person face to face when this first started. He just ignored me.
2. My parents have known about this since it first started. My father said if he touches me, instead of hitting back, he told me to drop to the floor and curl up into a little ball or block his hits.
3. His parents already know about him. In fact, his parents can't control him. I think I told you guys how he beat up his own mother on the first page of this thread.

Today, when I was walking behind him, he kept turning around and laughing at me and one of his friends asked what he was laughing at and he said "That pitiful blank blank back there" Instead of saying "blank blank", he said something else that I can't quote on here.

There is no solution that isn't violent so. . . .you have to decide.

I've tried, and everyone else has tried. The reason people are bullies is often because all they have to live on is the fact that you won't hit them. They only understand violence. Why do you think they act that way?

The principal is going to say you can't hit someone even if he/she thinks you should be cause his/her job depends on it.

There has not been a solution found that doesn't involving fighting this kid.

Your dad has serious issues if he thinks that you should curl up in a ball. If you want anyone at achool to EVER talk to you again under NO circumstances should you curl into a ball.

The fetal position is the 3rd least manly position in the world. ((The first two require someone else.))

Not trying to be mean. These are my opinions.
