[QUOTE="fit2btied, post: 835061, member: 6"] As a teacher, I've had to sit through several 'bullying' workshops. All have been the same, all the focus is on trying to get the bully to change. Guess what, he/she doesn't want to change! A much better idea would be to teach children how to avoid being victims. Like everything else in life, there is no 'one-size-fits-all' solution. Some 'victims' will always be 'victims' and some 'bullies' will always be 'bullies'. The ways problems are handled and consequences for both parties in these incidents are direct reflections of what is typically considered to be socially acceptable in your area. If your local school board members happen to be the parents of most of the 'thugs' as they are here, you have my sympathy. And we don't vote them out, we put more in! If it ain't about baseball or basketball, it really ain't worth our time. The worst cases of bullying I've been around involved Jr. High girls. They're like killer bees. They swarm and they're mean! It was like watching a hundred little banties after the last june bug west of the Mississippi! It took legal action to remedy both cases. I certainly hope you don't have to go down that road.
