Under today's zero intelligence, erm, "zero tolerance" school policies, don't some schools report fights and other physical attacks to the cops as a battery?


Yes, they do. Also some schools see a peck on the cheek between 5-year-olds as sexual assult.

I have heard about the "peck on the cheek" thing before... that is really fucking stupid.


It really pissed me off...that poor little boy is going to grow up thinking that he's some kind of pervert. evil


I wonder if they'll put him on his state's sex offender registry for the world to see. rolleyes

I think you should call the school and let them in on this kid's little games that he is playign then contact his family. Your son shouldn't have to be put though that or it may come back and wind up only getting your son in trouble too. It needs to be nipped in the bud now.. Besides letting your son hit him back, (which i think he should stick up for himself) I dont think hitting him back will solve much of anything.

I have thought about this all day... this is what I am going to do... let me know what you think...

I am going to tell him that I would like it if he went and talked to his teacher about this. Then... from that point on I'll let him handle it himself, though, I will tell him that if he does hit the boy, AFTER being hit himself, that I won't be mad at him for it.

He does need to learn to stick up for himself and handle these things himself. Will I be happy if he comes home with a black eye? Of course not, however, it is going to happen at some point in his life... this is just what happens, unfortunately.

What I don't want is for me to step in the middle, when the kid may not even hit him... and then cause things to be worse for my son... like, being called a tattle-tale, etc. And, I don't want to give my son the impression that life can always be handled by mom... because that isn't the way it works. I cannot protect him from everything.

I don't know... it's hard being a mom sometimes.

Thanks for all of the advice...

Well, I agree and I don't... fighting doesn't solve anything really, but, fighting isn't going to ever stop either. It's just a part of life. I remember friends of mine getting into fights in school... from grade school on up through middle school. That's just what kids do.

If it does happen and my son does choose to hit him back, well, one, maybe after being hit back the kid may think twice about it and/or not pick on my son again because he knows he will fight back. I don't want my son to learn that fighting is a way out or "good", but I also don't want him to back down and just let another kid pound away.

I'm gonna tell u what my thought is on this situation... I'm first of all 6'3" & around 290lbs. I'm the poster child for getting picked on.I've always been the biggest anywhere I go.I always was the one that bullies picked on,because of that. I never had a dad(untill my mom passed) so I never really learned how 2 fight(still can't).anyhow my position is that u should teach Colin how 2 talk his way out of the situation rationally & make this kid (dickey) Ricky's head spin with the stuff that he says.that always worked 4 me & I've only got punched about 3-4 times in my whole 30yrs. if that doesn't work tell him 2 say that he has a friend in the canada maffia & we will come & whack his lil' punk ass if he doesn't stop pickin' on u're kid.but the talkin' thing should work,cause bullies r usually dummies. err confuse

My son is a good talker... perhaps that's why it hasn't happened yet and apparently it's been a week since he threatened him. I am sure my son would resort to that first... but I am also thinking that if he got hit, he may want to hit back and won't... out of fear that I would be mad at him.

My son never really had a father figure around when I was with their dad, and now that we moved out, they've seen him once since Easter. My son knows how to hit because I have tought him how to fight... and he does hit hard, so, if this kid does get hit he will hurt... lol.

Thank you for your advice. I did ask my son a few minutes ago about it.. and I asked him what he said to Ricky when Ricky told him this... my son said he told him, "Are you sure you want to do that?" LOL Which, I found funny because he only knows that phrase because I say it to my kids all the time when they are about to do something that maybe they shouldn't... so, maybe Ricky took it as maybe he doesn't want to mess with my son! lol

Sorry to say bullies only learn the hard way, they are little pussies and grow up to be bigger pussies. Maybe your son is the one to teach him this lesson.

I had the same situation with my daughter. I told her to tell the teacher. She told the teacher, several times. nothing happened. He called her a nigger. She told the teacher, nothing happened. He snatched a ball from her and hit her with it, she kicked him in his balls, social worker called me at work to complain about my daughters behavior. Good thing she called me at work. Anyway, he respects her now. Fool!

I teach my children to NEVER EVER take the first lick, but I was a small child myself, I know the feeling of being bullied -- until they found out I wasn't gonna be nobody's punching bag.

Stricking back at a bully will not make you a violent person. In fact, not striking back could cause serious emotional problems in the future. Sometimes you have to stay out of little people's stuff and allow them to handle the situation. I know this is very difficult, cause you want to protect them, but always be aware and offer advise & consequences of certain actions. And PRAY!!!

In the end your son must feel confident in his abilities to stand up for himself and how to control a sitution to his advantage. Right is right.
