It's unfortunate that the schools don't do more to protect bullied kids, and it's obviously ridiculous that the victim is treated as an offender as well, but at the end of the day you are responsible for yourself because you have to take care of A-number-1.
I don't believe there's any such thing as an unfair fight, because you do what you have to do to win. So if you're being bullied by someone and you don't think you can take them 1-on-1, then you bring something to assist you and you make SURE you take them. And I don't mean a gun or knife. Even if it's just something to pack your fist.
It's time these kids started sticking up for themselves and fighting back.
What do you think schools should "do more" to protect bullied kids?.
Almost every kid in school will identify themself as being bullied at one time or another.
Here is a link to the school's web page
Marshall Middle School > Home
There is a school nurse, two counsellors, a psychologist, and a "harrassment form" that you can get online. The entire staff can be contacted via email.
I think its time to step away from blaming the gawddamn school: The public is doing all it can to keep these people happy, but its very clear that NO MATTER WHAT, there will be people that are so disturbed/confused that there's NOTHING that ANYONE can do with them.
The majority of my post was about the kids sticking up for themselves. The only part about the school doing more was in regards to having a better policy than what most of them have, where the victim is often treated as a co-offender.
