[QUOTE="DammitJanet, post: 606663, member: 1514"] I was horribly bullied as a child and even though I was smart, I could be easily manipulated which gave the bullies so much to work with. In 5th grade they had me in tears because they told me I had failed 5th grade because the teacher forgot to check the box saying promoted to the next grade. I had straight A's but because that box wasnt checked a whole group of kids managed to convince me I failed my grade. Im sure the teacher thought I was smart enough to know that if you got straight A's you would obviously be passed on but the kids were so mean about it I was crying when my mom picked me up on that last day. I was going to a private school and was picked on anyway because my mom made all my clothes instead of buying them. I stood out like a sore thumb. I hate bullies. The only one of my kids who wasnt bullied by other kids was difficult child. Both oldest and middle one were and the schools actually told me they wanted them to stand up for themselves. Now there was no way on earth oldest could fight because he just wasnt built that way. In the neighborhood Cory took on the bullies and fought them over his brothers several times. I could never convince middle son to knock the koi out of the kids who were bullying him until it just got to be too much and that took years. One day after two kids from the same family...also neighbors....kept bullying him at the bus stop he simply whipped their butts. Their father wanted to get involved but husband told him to stand down, his boys deserved every lick middle on gave. Their father didnt want to go up against husband because while husband is very mild mannered most of the time, he is also built big and strong. He could have made mincemeat out of the man. Jamie could also but because he was so big he didnt want to be seen as a fighter. Thats funny when you think about him being a Marine later. I always thought of him as my gentle marshmallow but his fellow Marines said he was a force to be reckoned with. We knew two totally different people at that point. Even now, Jamie wont go looking for trouble but I wouldnt want to be the one who had to meet up with him on the wrong side of the law. Does Mighty Mouse have an older cousin or friend who could go down and scare the living daylights out of these kids? If not you might have to teach him to fight and then he needs to take on the biggest one and lay him out cold. No one will mess with him then. [/QUOTE]
