A-HA!!! See? I knew there was an edge to you in there somewhere!

Details! You beat her down, didn't you? Then went after the Principal and tried to choke the bitch with your Lederhosen, didn't you?

Uh-huh...we know how you roll...

The only time I wore Lederhosen was for some kind of a schooldancing/play and I hated it as they were my (male) cousins and I would have preferred to wear a Dirndl, but I had to be a boy .

I just remember that I won and that the teachers never found out about it.

As much as I am seen as a nice, charming girl by everyone I always got a very strong personality ever since I was little

Austrian-gangsta style!

thanks to everyone for your response! his teacher sent me a very good e-mail, and also spoke with me and my husband after school today. i feel like she has dealt with the issue in a great way, and is taking it serious. my son also seems to feel more at ease now. i'm impressed with his school, i must say they seem to be very on the ball about everything.

That's good news. I'm glad to hear that the school is taking it seriously. Your son appears to be a very loving and good natured child and doesn't deserve to be tortured.

Check with the school because most of them now have a ZERO tolerence rule about bullying.. I know this because I had to go to my daughters school at one time for some girls giving her a very hard time...

They give them a warning and if it doesnt quit they are suspended and the police are called... This way it gets the other parents involved and aware just in case they have no idea what their child is doing...

You may mention this to the school anyway, just so they know your not gonna blow it off..

Good luck Hun

Hell yeah!

I didn't deal with bullies much . Usually the bullies wanted to be friends with me because I laughed at everything & didn't really take what they said seriously . When I did get teased , of course it effected me , but not in a horrible way . Sometimes , I'd respond with a FUCK you & half times I'd walk away because I didn't care enough to what they thought .

But on a serious note ... One time , these guys kept bothering me in class because mainly one of them wanted to get with me , but I turned him down & they were just saying really mean things about me & led to harasment . One time I went home crying & my brother found out & had his football teammates jumped this same guy & his 'crew also . Eventually my mother found out about it & talk to the counselor & he ended up suspended or something for disobeying the 0-tolerance for bullying . I was a sophomore at the time .

I had to fight as much as I didn't want to as a child, the kids in my neighborhood were the same kids I went to school with. If they didn't get me in school, they would eventually get me on the bus or on the walk home from the bus stop.

I lived 2 miles away from the school... and when walking home the entire way to avoid them didn't work, I eventually got sick and tired and reluctantly fought back.

My first real knock out drag down fight was with a boy older than me. He was dared to slap me in my face and he just did. We started fighting... we kept up until I bit a hole in his wrist and he bled heavily from the wound. He threatened to shot me the next day.

Instead he ganged up on me and had 3 other kids pelt me with rocks... I was armed with a knife and he backed up... they just let me go. I was 11.

I had plenty more fights after that... (I learned to fight real dirty), I was lucky ... I knew how to pick my fights and when to talk my way out of of fights. Girl gands formed by the time I was 15 and girls were claiming other's girls faces as trohpys by slicing them up horribly with box cutters. Boys were gang raping girls at that time also. I did NOT want to fight then. There was NO gun control and every one carried some type of weapon since this was before metal detectors and searches. I only carried and fought as an extreme measure of defense, I learned to leave pride at the door. You fought, you risked much back then.

I got lucky because at 16 I dated a thug... no one wanted a piece of him so I was left alone all the sudden. People who previously picked on me wouldn't even look me in the eye.Since then life was a total breeze.

The boy I first fought ended up serving two life sentences for killing two people, he also raped 2 girls I know. I am glad he ended up in jail... I hope he stays there.

I have a 20yr. old... things are way better now. So I tell him, if they pick your battles wisely, learn to laugh things off and if you get cornered, never speak a word... just fight hard and fight dirty, bite off an ear and hit 'em with a brick. Kick em in their face and make them bleed.

They will call you crazy and leave you the hell alone.

It worked.

My little wimpy 11 year old recently nutted up on a bully and all the kids were like.

they left him alone too.

bullies do NOT like kids who fight back.

double post edit.

wow! you went through a lot!

I've written this a bunch of times (like, four or five), but no matter how I say it I'm not comfortable posting it. Sooo, here's the short version...

Extreme violence.

Unfortunately (or fortunately, really), that doesn't work for everyone. So for me I think its really important that parents talk to their kids. Ask questions. Ask DIRECT questions about bullying. Make sure they know that everyone is different and there's nothing wrong with that. Make sure they know that foul words may sting now, but they actually reflect more on the person saying them than the person they're saying them to. If its violence they're dealing with I don't really know what to say other than get involved and stay involved. Let the school know what's happening and have the other child (or children's) parents brought to the school to meet with you (all of the kids as well). At least that way all parties would be aware of what is taking place in case it continues or escalates.

However, in some cases the only thing that will make any difference is just standing your ground and/or kicking their asses.

I didn't say anything about putting on a trench coat & taking machine guns to school to kill anyone. If they tried to defend themselves, instead of being some little bitches, no one would have died that day....I was bullied when I was younger, so I know that fighting back helps.....especially when you discover that you're heavy handed....

I only had 1 bully and I beat the shit out of him and he never bothered me every again.

My Dad was going to high school during the greaser years in the late 50's. It was a tough school, so he brought a shot gun to school. Took a shot at the light fixture at school and told his bullies that the next bullet would go in them. They never bothered him again.

That's what's up [except the shotgun part]!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Like I said, a nice asswhooping changes everything.....

thanks again for everyone's point of view on the subject.

I beat my bully up, I don't know how I did it but I threw him in the trash can.

Its all relative.. I grew up in a ROUGH low income neighborhood in the 80's before the police made a real presence in the neighborhood.... I did good considering I don't physical scars and I am not using drugs or toothless like almost the girls I grew up with.

Teach your children to stand up for themselves and fight back... they will need to in the work environment anyways. Bullies are everywhere.

BTW... not every battle with a bully DOESN'T have to be a physical one.... a witty and sharp mind can get you out of lots of scrapes. Most bullies really do NOT want to fight. Most just only know what they are taught from their dysfunctional households.

Teach a kid how to throw a punch sure... but also teach a kid how to manilpulate any scenario into his advantage.

Gotta teach a kid how to deal with enemies in specific ways depending on the situations.

important word missing edit.
