Did you bully kids at school ?

[The Eagle]

Yes. Bullied and got bullied later on. I guess it was Karma which was fair.

 

[aus101]

Yeah, I bullied teammates on my sports teams, particularly football.

I grew up in the 80's and 90's. That was sorta the culture back then. In my defense, I bullied bullies. My main reasoning was that I liked putting people in their place, and that was a place it was allowed. I stopped growing in 8th grade, so by the time I was playing varsity football, I wasn't able to fuck everyone up anymore, and I mellowed out after being humbled a bit. I was a 5'9" 170lb defensive back/running back my senior year, but when I was in 8th grade, I was 5'9" 150lbs and already pretty built for a kid that age. Most of the bigger kids were just fat fucks at that age, so I got off on hurting them. I did the same shit in wrestling, but not nearly as bad, as wrestling isn't nearly as rough of a sport as football despite it being a much harder sport both mentally and physically.

Maybe American wrestling but I played rugby and did freestyle wrestling as a kid (trained by ex soviet wrestlers), and wrestling was much rougher than anything else. One of the drills we'd do every session was lie shoulder to shoulder in a row on the mats and roll across everyone, with the goal of inflicting as much pain with knees, hips and elbows as possible. Yeah in rugby back in the day we could ruck at the ball (essentially stomping, kicking and raking a studded boot across a pile of body's in an attempt to pry out a ball) but even then playing as a flanker or front row I felt wrestling the roughest.

I remember when I started bjj and guys would try and "grind me down". I'd just laugh and have a rest as what they considered grinding was normal grappling in wrestling, where a forearm to the throat is standard fare.

For a few days, I was bullied. I stabbed the other kid with a compass. I was getting my ass kicked at home, I sure as shit wasn't going to put up with getting my ass kicked at school, too.

Never bothered anyone.

I was a bit of a gobshite cunt

 

[Ezekiel 25:17]

I did, but only after being bullied myself. Thing with me is that I had no one to tell me that bullying was wrong. I felt as though it was normal. I was bullied for quite some time and turn also bullied.

Even in my karate class which should have prevented bullying only added to it. Our sensei bullied us 100% and implored older, bigger kids to be aggressive towards the younger ones.

I thought I was in cobra kai for real.

Honestly, it's up to parents to school their kids early on about what bullying is at it will happen at some point, normally very early on.

Teachers usually dont do shit. Authorities dont do shit.

I find it comical that its only a thing once you get into the workplace these days and by then its almost too late.

I'm that kid. You'll be hearing from my lawyers (when I can afford one, after I stop smoking crack but that's another story).

 

[Prelimtapper]

Never bullied anyone, but I got bullied here and there. I basically would allow it to happen for 3-4 months and then physically hurt the bully in some way or another and that was it. Bullying ceased when I was 12, when I grew from like 5'3" to 5'11" and beat the piss out of one of the bullies in front of everyone. I was too large at that point to fuck with, plus I was violent and didn't give a shit if I hurt people.

 

[Satan's Daddy.]

Nope, but I'd get bullied lots throughout school despite the "zero tolerance" horseshit the teachers or principals love spitting out like it means anything. Kids will be animals just like adults, not everyone is on the same brain wave length. I've almost lost an eye while playing soccer from a bully when he shoved me into a small wooden Bush beside my school when I was in like the 3rd or 4th grade. Got a nice minuscule scar on my eyebrow to this day, had a bad speech impediment cause of a dog attack I've survived. At a young age around that time frame or earlier so it eventually went away it's not as noticeable but yeah. So it's easy to be bullied being flawed like that, gives them a power trip. Feeds that psychopathic hunger they have.

 

[Deleted member 449757]

No. Never. I hate bullying.

 

[SugarKrok]

I wish I was more naturally aggressive and mean. It would have helped back in the day. In the end, I just stood up to my bullies one day by jumping them individually and putting a knife to their throat.

Kids are worse than adults because 99% of the time there’s no consequence.

 

[Alphaboy]

Nah, I'm not a twat with self-esteem issues.

 

[Henry Swanson]

In hindsight yes. At the time I thought it was just harmless teasing. I’m almost certain I’m on a couple people’s “kill” list.

 

[SalvadorAllende]

I went to a technician school.. meaning we were all boys in my class.

So yes.. 24 highschool morons in one room.. there was a lot of bullying but it was mostly back and fort.

 

[AFanNotAFighter]

I was bullied in high school since I was small and weak. Shout out to the older and bigger high school students who I didn't even know who would step in and stop it when they saw me getting hassled.

 

[Fedorgasm]

I did a little physical bullying. Just shoving smaller kids or flicking their ears on the bus.

What stopped me was when a kid was willing to throw hands. Or sometimes he had a friend that was bigger that was willing to stick up for him. So I can say standing up to the bully can definitely work in many cases.

Then I switched to being more of a mental bully. Teasing kids relentlessly, and I was good at making it funny so other kids couldn't help but laugh and in many cases join in.

Eventually I teased one girl so bad that she came and screamed at me, asking why I was doing this to her, and she was in tears.

It was like an epiphany. Before that I had no conscience and it was like I developed a really strong one instantly.

I went home and cried for a long time. Finally aware that what I was doing wasn't harmless fun. It was making kids miserable.

So I decided that's not the person I wanted to be and I stopped.

Years later after myspace and Facebook became a thing I was able to track down many of the people I bullied and apologize to them.

My best friend and I used to playfight with his younger, autistic brother from time to time when I was round his. We went too far on him at times. We wrestled and he cried sometimes. I didn't seek him out, he always came in, but we shouldn't have gone too far. I don't know if it constituted as bullying or not, and I didn't see it as such at the time, but I regret not having the mental capacity to take it more seriously. I'd apologize if I met him in person though.

I noticed two traits at my time at high school when it came to bullying.

- Bullies didn't really see it as bullying.
- People being bullied would occasionally bully other bully victims.

I kind of regret that entire friendship actually. It wasn't bad as such, but it led to nothing. I regret all of my friendships at school. I should have just knuckled down, studied and did a combat sport instead. Really wish I wasn't so fucking immature as a kid.

I was bullied too, mentally, not physically, aside from them spitting on my back. At home, my brother bullied me physically and mentally.

 

[MeatWagon06]

I got bullied so bad my Freshman year for being a skater punk at a close minded redneck school, that I ended up getting homeschooled the next year. Wasn’t the only reason though, I had some tragic stuff happen to me as well.

I came back my Junior year full grown and became a bully and got in a lot of fights. Mostly towards dickheads who I thought deserved it. I regret it now and have actually made amends with the few I picked on that definitely didn’t deserve it. I was an angry little bastard.

 

[Provocateur]

I had to try all the stuff I saw in the movies on somebody.

 

[Hog-train]

My parents use to physically fight hard at home so I learned it there from my earliest memory.

I wouldn't bully (except one time in the 2nd grade - which I regret) - but did get bullied all the time.

I was nerdy and scrawny with bad clothes and hair. My family was poor. But due to my upbringing and seeing violence at a young age, I would eventually explode with anger and start hitting people that bullied me really violently.

When you're a little elementary school kid, aggression and anger win out over size. I got suspended twice in elementary for fighting. Always started with kids bullying or teasing me, then I would unexpectedly explode violently.

I also got suspended twice in JHS. First time, a random kid just came up to me without a word in gym class and started punching my thigh. I took a pair of brass knuckles on my keychain and punched him in the chest and he fell down and started crying.

Second time - It was a fire drill and the person behind me (a large girl bigger and taller than me) slapped me in the back of the head telling me to hurry the fuck up. I stayed silent and didn't do anything. Then another slap and cursing at me. Still didn't do anything and kept walking. Then a third slap and I completely lost my temper and open hand slapped her really hard. She started bawling and a teacher saw. Got suspended for 2 weeks for that. Would normally never hit a girl but a person can only take so much physical hitting from someone without doing anything.
