Glad to hear of it. Bullying is not nice and should not happen. If people bully you again remind them of the Golden Rule. "Do unto others as you would have them do unto you."
I was bullied at school actually, but I was lucky, I told my older brother...the guy who beat the **** out of me never did so again
I am so glad to hear this. You have power and you are strong. It is great that you let people know that this behavior will not stand. I am really proud of you for showing courage. All of us are here to support you...
Kenful, there was a time that rape was blamed on the victims and sexual abuse of children was ignored too.Oh and Jim Crow laws /slavery was accepted also.Just because people grew up and develope abilities to manage negative emotions does not mean that damage was not done in the past.
I am unable to understand why, what has been a common thing among youngsters for so long, has become such an important issue to them and society at large.
The degree of bullying has steadily increased since then. I know a guy who was so badly beaten in a high school fight in the 60's that he missed 6 months of school after spending several weeks in the hospital. It's one thing a get a black eye or a bloody nose, it's another to get skull fractures, organ damage, and broken bones that require major medical treatment.
The influx of armed gang members into the school system has only aggravated the situation. The highschools in the neighborhood where I lived in LA were surrounded by high chainlink fences topped with concertina barbed wire. There was a least one police car on each campus all day, and when school started or ended all of the local police units and most of the nonuniformed officers were deployed to deal with the problems that occurred. Despite decades of metal detectors, guns and knives are regularly found on campuses. There was a high school kid who lived across the street who was sent to the Youth Authority for murder when he was 16--he got in more trouble inside and is now doing life without parole.
You should have posted this in the original thread.
Glad to hear the good news, though.
Well done. You've displayed an above average amount of courage.
Finally, and I hope you won't be a victim for such thing again. BTW I speak a little bit polish and I love polish people, they're very very friendly and nice. I think those kids are blind, can't even see the beauty of ethnic and cultural differences.
Hurray for you! I so glad things are better.
My daughter was in kindergarten in the early 70's She was complaining to me one day about a boy in the class who pulled her hair and shoved her. She was not showing any injuries, but was obviously wanting Rusty to stop it. I told her she should tell Rusty to quit that stuff and treat her like a lady. I didn't really think that was going to do the job - but I wasn't yet ready to go to school myself and make a mountain out of a molehill. Sharon reported back to me a day or two later that she had told Rusty that if he did not stop pulling her hair, she was going to use her fist on him. I don't remember that Sharon ever complained to me about Rusty again.
I was a school boy in the 40's and 50's. There were always a few toughies among us who maintained their dominance mostly by body language and occasional veiled threats. I suppose that was a mild form of bullying. If the object of the bullying challenged the bully, a fistfight or wrestling match often followed. However, regardless of who won or maintained dominance in the fight, I never knew of any serious or permanent injuries. Yes, there were nose bleeds and black eyes, and sometimes a bruise or scrape in addition, but never a cause to call an ambulance or doctor. I had a fair share of them myself and for sure, I was not the toughest kid in school. Sure, some kids had their feelings hurt when they felt they had to or were made to submit, but I never knew of one of my classmates that made a fuss about it - let alone go so far as to commit suicide. And we still have reunions after 60 - 70 years and no one uses those occasions to focus on how they were bullied at school. I am unable to understand why, what has been a common thing among youngsters for so long, has become such an important issue to them and society at large.
What other language do you speak, Aga?
