The guy is OBVIOUSLY more than a few fries short of a Happy Meal.

I don't care how much a bully is bullying your son.

Instead of teaching your son to stand up for himself you teach him to cry to daddy and daddy gets the stun gun?

This guy is a pastor? Turn the other cheek, while you reach for the stun gun?

Its not that having your kid stand up for himself is hard to do, But nowadays, standing up for yourself can get you kicked out of school. Schools find it easier to get rid of the victims than to deal with the bullies and their parents. Been there and done that.

“I don’t care how much a bully is bullying your son.”

Remove this statement from your post and you have a reasonable point. Keep this statement in and you convey the message that no matter the form, no matter the torment, no matter the brutality, you think a parent should not intervene.

I cannot do that, and did not do that when my son was relentlessly being bullied by two thugs. . .thugs that only stopped when I made it clear to the thugs that they would do nothing but hurt the rest of their life if they continued. Scared them straight. I did what the school refused (or was unable to do), and what the parents could not stop.
