[QUOTE="bear, post: 826199, member: 5779"] That's great! The situation was recognized and adult intervention helped to steer those boys in the right direction. Not all of these situations are recognized and most are situations where adults and staff have chose not to recognize them. I have a guy working for me that has a boy in the 5th grade. He is just a little guy who is small for his age and even smaller than most of the girls in his class. He has been coming home from school with bruises on his arms and shoulders. The boy bully is large for his age and three times the size of the little guy. The bully has already been suspended for similar actions against other students yet he continues to bully. The little guy has told his teacher and his dad has been to the principle. The only response dad has received from the principle is for the little guy to fight back and the teacher looks the other way. There have been instances at home where this bully has been tormenting kids in their neighborhood and when parents come out to tell him to go home he flips them off. Probably no parenting at home. Whose responsibility is it now? Even schools where suicides have occurred and was proven the suicide was a result of bullying, some school officials say there is no problem. There is a lot more known about bullying and its side effects today than when you and I were kids. For adults and school staff to standby and do nothing with the knowledge and resources available today to guard against bullying or maybe even stop it, they are no less guilty than the bully himself or herself and should be punished as well.
