Let's say your kid is being bullied heavily in school, daily, and you notice his behaviour with you and family is changing for worse and you feel like there's something wrong, then you find out he's being bullied by a group of douchebags at school

what's your reaction ?
 
I would have to go to the school, complain to the principal, and demand to talk to the other kids parents. Cause if they didnt resolve the situation and teach their kids some manners , they would be forcing me to do it for them.
I would also put my kid in martial arts classes for various reasons.
 
Send Nicolas Cage to beat up their dads, then send him to beat up the bullies...

Sadly, many times when the parents find out the damage is already done. Bullying is a serious thing, i couldn't imagine something like that happening to my kids.

Imagine sending your son to school, thinking he's safe there, and other kids are making it hell for him ?
 
Fill the room with uppercuts.

You can teach your kid martial arts, but it could also backfire. Can you sue the school if they don't do anything about bullies?
 
Man that's my biggest fear. First thing I would want is to destroy those bullies, but sadly we cant.

If a kid is being bullied, it's because there is something about him/her that attracts that imo. Bullies only go after those who appears to be easy victims. They will never go after those who can fight back.

But to answer your question, I would probably change my kid school. After that, it would be anything to rebuild his self-esteem. Martial art class, etc.
 
KO the bully and stream the video on Facebook.
 
I had an issue like this with my younger brothers. My parents were gigantic pussies aka "pacifists" and I, in turn, revolted against that myself. I told my brothers not to take any bullshit and that it was better to lose a fight than to walk away and feel like a coward. They ended up getting in trouble, of course, and eventually were considered the bullies. I have mixed feelings about that now as an adult but in the end I think you have to pick yours over theirs.

Now my daughter is a pacifist. See how that works out sometimes? She tends to just wait for the trouble to go away but recently she was put in a situation where she had to defend herself and she cracked that bitch right in the mouth. One and done!!! Again, kinda mixed feelings but....I kind of also think it was fucking awesome. For her. Nice to know she will defend herself when it really counts.

I guess I would speak to school administration and ask them to intervene. If they think a meeting with the bully's parents is appropriate then I would agree to meet with them.

I'm a newer parent so I don't have much input as to how I would approach dealing with my kid if she was being bullied. I think of the kids I grew up with who never really got bullied or if they did, they stood up for themselves. They never lacked confidence so I guess from a parent's perspective I would start there.
 
Uppercuts, uppercuts everywhere and when your arms get tired start biting people.
 
I wouldn't want to be seen as some over-protective parent, but at the very least I'd check with a teacher or someone at the school and see if they've had other reports of kids being bullied. Depending on how bad it was I would try to encourage my kid to ignore it and/or handle it on his/her own. Verbal abuse from kids is one thing . . . physical abuse is another. Some kids can handle it and/or dish it right back out and everyone moves on.

Good for your daughter!!
 
One of my kids is smallest in his class, for sure he gets bullied, but not showing much at home. It is life, and he goes to a nice private school with strict policy, so that helps.
