Physical Violence and Bullying Are Not The Same

VERY FOUL LANGUAGE!!!
Two cases of boys physically assaulting people pissed me off. One against a girl and one against an autistic boy.

@melabug11 Indeed I do.

@ask123321 Thanks. It is a rut I have gotten into. my dad has always been very hard on himself. I have gotten many of his positive traits but also some of the negative. Oooh its 1 o'clock. Got a meeting in the morning and then off to the hospital. Have a great night.

@gfreakj hey G, don't be so hard on yourself. i had an biker gang uncle who told me while i was in school that he promised if anyone messed with me at school, he would be there to help in a heartbeat (with a few of his tough friends!) i never had to call in that favor, but it gave me so much comfort knowing he was there.

he also introduced me to an incredible album called "Manassas" by Steven Stills. my uncle has been "promoted into glory" as they say, but i really miss him :(

@ask123321 DANG IT!!!! I knew you would say something like that. ;)

[gfreakj]

@ask123321 Thats the right way to handle it. I just ain't right sometimes. LOL

[ask123321]

@gfreakj p.s. thanks for your willingness to stick up for us :) that's sweet. it's tragic that kids are seeing and experiencing such violence at home, and then they bring it to school. but, aggression toward a person does not heal aggression in the person. just like fire doesn't fight fire... it makes the fire bigger and hotter. makes much more sense to fight fire with water.

@gfreakj it makes me mad thinking back on it too, but i have to hand it over to God to transform my anger into forgiveness. the child in question was only 5. we fixed the problem by never going back. we found a cool private school for her now, and she loves it. it has great teachers, and the vibe and instruction about treating one another with kindness. sadly, private schools aren't an option for so many kids. we are so grateful for the help we get from our family to send her there.

@lordfredplus Me and you both.

@halo3sn1p3r Thanks.

Good dad.
