Agreed. The school, though, is responsible for student safety when the kids are on campus. They’re still off track, in my view. The article indicates the school is responding by providing counseling for students, etc. They SHOULD be focused on a.) identifying the bullies; b.) expelling them; and c.) driving the point home to students that this was the result of bullying. Parents of the bullies are culpable as well, and are likely bullies (cowards) themselves. And this is the state of our society these days. He looked like a good kid to me. This is gut-wrenching stuff to hear about.
“expelling them; “
Most schools don’t expel kids these days. Even if they did the kids would just view that as a vacation day.
The best thing this father could have done is pulled his kid from the school, really it was the only option. The schools don’t do a darn thing when it comes to bullying UNLESS it’s an alphabet child then they do something.
