BULLIED !!!!, ...need help, counsel, shoulder to cry on. Options

[axelrduvirage]

my 12 year-old is being bullied again. he hadn't talked abut it in a while and everything seemed OK. his disposition is always cheerful and although he has moderate to severe learning and social disabilities, still loves to go to school. at least, he has never once said "i don't like it there" or "school sucks!". yesterday he was ambushed and shot at with a BB gun off school property. we have alerted the school and are waiting to talk to the RCMP-school liaison officer today. is there anyone out there who can guide me through this before i do something stupid? i have a very short fuse and am quite a poweful man. combine the two and you have an assault waiting to happen. not that i would ever harm a child, but if i ever confront one of these bullies' parents and they piss me off, i could very easily take it out on them-- verbally (a given) or physically.

I'm just glad to hear you haven't done anything stupid yet. If I had a kid and he came home and told me what happend - without thinking, I would've done something stupid. I have to agree, not to the kids who did it, but I would've said something to the parents of the kids.

Well man, I've had similar situations happen to me when I was growing up..Yes..I was bullied..But I definitely haven't put up with it since I was little..But I got bigger, so I don't get effed with so much anymore.

Anyways, on to the advice. I'd talk to the parents before you take it to the police. I would just use the police to scare the kid into never doing it again..But definitely talk to the parents.

But if the parents decide not to do anything about it (doubt they won't do anything), you can put your kid in some sort of "self-defense" class. Such as karate or boxing or something. Just so he can defend himself if situations get to rough - which we all hope don't happen.
