DS has had 4 fights in the last two days. with the same two boys, this has been building up over the last 12 months. The reason for the fights is that he is sick of walking away. And i feel I have to agree with him. These lads just chivvy and name call, barge and wind him up. DS is clever, sporty and is by no means your text book bullies target but he does walk away and it takes a lot for him to blow his top. But the fuse is getting shorter and i am afraid that these boys will get a nasty shock if they dont stop tormenting him. What can i do???

My son is just is nearly 10 and I hate to say it but there are a group of girls in his year that are spiteful little bitches, they dress like tarts and roam the streets after dark. FGS they are only 9 and 10. What is it all about? He is in composite class and somehow has ended up the only p6 boy but he has made pals with the P7 boys and the P6 girls in his class don't seem to be the bitchy ones. He is a lot more confident now and a lot more wise to it all.

DD was pushed and shoved and bullied mercilessly by one particularly nasty boy in her first year at secondary school. He used to wait round corners and get her alone.

One day, at the end of a class, she waited until the others had all filed out and slammed the door shut just as this lad was trying to exit.

She then knocked him to the floor by sweeping his feet out from under him. She took a well aimed kick right at his face, stopping just short, but close enough to scare the shit out of him.

He went crying to the teachers (funny how they never took any notice when it was my DD complaining about the bully).

DD said it was worth every moment of her two weeks of lunch time detentions. He never touched her again.
