My story about: Bullies - School Age
mariamcman's story
June 26, 2007
My son had some troubles last year (2nd grade) with a kid who was tormenting him mercilessly. So my son got in trouble with the principle for fighting with the boy who had taunted him past endurance. I also made sure that my son understood that it's not okay to hit someone, and he got in big trouble with me for fighting. But secretly, I was relieved that my son had the instinct to fight back. I don't know if it's right or wrong, but I feel better thinking that he will face his obstacles head on and not run from them or depend on someone else to solve them. I told him. Hitting people is not okay, but defending yourself is fine.
