My son is 7, but I'll be damned if I let him get bullied. No, I don't mean I will tell the bully's parents. My son will know not to stand for bullying. Response with violence is ok in my book. Sounds bad, but that's the way it is. A bully is not going to respond to name calling, so that's when a beat down or a broken limb come into play. All it takes is one good ass whooping and it really isn't a problem anymore.

Ignoring it won't work and telling teacher won't work. Parents need to quit coddling their kids and let them take their frustration/anger/pain out on the bully.

One of my friends did this (we went to different schools). He was picked on and bullied all his life, and one day in HS some bully hit him and knocked him down. My friend simply stood up, calmly, and socked the guy right in the damn face. He was never bullied again.
 
The pussification of America has run rampant over the last ten years or so. The bullying now is the same as the past just on more platforms. Instead of dealing with it with an old school fight kids are told to tell parents or teachers, or express their feelings to a psychiatrist or whatever. Look at where this mentality has gotten us. I don't ever remember hearing about kids commiting suicide from being bullied back in the day.

A good fist fight will go a long way. Win or lose the outcome is better than letting the bullying continue and not doing anything about it.
 
That might sound like a good idea. But, you also have kids bringing weapons to school. Or maybe even using a weapon after school off the school grounds. You're taking a risk. If you find it an acceptable risk...ok. Just something to think about.
 
Fist fights don't work like they did even 10 years ago. Expect for 5+ hoodlums to be waiting the next day with at least brass knuckles.

Police are catching 13-14 year olds here carrying guns to school and these are middle class and above kids/schools.

It's fucked up.
