Jonah Mowry: 'Whats goin on..'( School Bullying)
This is a pitiful video. This child is in genuine pain due to the bullying he has suffered since first grade. He dreads starting eighth grade.
So?...: Some comments and questions:
--- When children are confined and herded together in same age groups with insufficient adult supervision, we should expect bullying. Bullying not an exception given the social situation the children must endure.. ( In many ways, the social pathology seen in institutional schools resembles prison pathology.)
---It is more important for modestly talented white collar workers in the government schools to keep their jobs and feed the educational-industrial complex than it is to really find **HUMANE** schooling models and effective teaching methods.
---There are schools and situations where it would be better for the child to receive **no** education whatsoever than to suffer the abuse they experience in school. Illiteracy and innumeracy can be fixed. Dead can't be. This child is in one of those situations.
---Why are children **forced** by the government to endure abuse that would win an adult court ordered restraining orders, felony charges, and millions in court for workplace harassment?
---Surely the parents know what is going on. This child needs to be rescued. Why have they abandoned him?
---Why should this child trust his parents or those adults in his life who should be rescuing him but have failed to do so?
---Why aren't teachers held to the **same** standards and penalties as employers in the workplace? Why are teachers and principals special and immune from personal court suits and government penalties and fines? Where are the class action attorneys when children need them?
---This child is in tremendous pain. The other children in the class have witnessed this bullying. Are they living in hellish fear that they may be the next victim? Is it good for children to be forced to witness such abuse? I certain don't think so.
---One of the cruelest things to say to a child suffering from bullying it to say, "It is normal or it is good for you." If it isn't good for an adult in the workplace or woman in a marriage, why would we think it is good for a **child**?
My child was asked to be a monitor for bullies at his schoolm. We discouraged that. Also have told our kids to fight back regardless of school policy.
Me too, told mine you have to bully a bully. Say back to them whatever bs they say to you.
You don’t have any friends
No YOU don’t have any friends
We even rehearsed and I showed her the opening scene from miss congeniality
Jonah:
#1, stop acting like a victim.
Adults can get restraining orders. They can press charges with the police, They can sue the perp and the employer for workplace harassment. They can quit and look for other work and move.
Seriously? What can a kid do, other than find and use the defenses prisoners use in prison: Form a protection gang ( clique), or be prepared to bloody the perp.

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
This school is training up future state informers.
If children attend godless, socialist, and prison-like government schools we shouldn’t be surprised that future citizens act like state prisoners ( which includes those willing to be informers.)
This kid needs to fight back ... kick the living crap out of the kids that bully him. Of course, in our politically correct, liberal government schools individuals are not able to do anything on their own, including protect themselves. Everyone needs to turn to "government authority" for help. He won't get the advice he needs to stand up to bullies and teach them a lesson.
It really doesn't matter if he loses a fights against bullies. At least he is able to say that he stood up to them. And the real outcome is once you stand up to a bully, it is no longer worth the effort for the bully to pick on you if he knows he will be in a fight and will be hurt. There is always some softer, younger target to go after.
It is sad, but that is way it works.
I am speaking from personal experience as I was bullied when I was in Jr. High School ... until one day after gym, in the locker room, the bully (nearly twice my size) punched me as I was tying my shoe on a bench. (A hook right to my chin.) I snapped. I put him in a head lock and commenced destroying his face. A gym teacher heard the commotion and stood watching as I repeated beat him to a pulp. I looked up at the gym teacher and said, "You better stop this, because if I let him up (he was twice my size) he is going to kill me." The gym teacher didn't help. He watched as I continued to beat the crap out of him.
I was sent home that day from school, because my clothes were drenched in blood. The bully was suspended from school for 10 days. I was back at school the next day. Apparently, the gym teacher and the vice principal knew the kid was a bully, and I was certainly not, so I didn't get into any trouble.
When the ex-bully returned to school, his face was still a mess (broken nose, and traces of bruises, cuts, black eyes). By that time, my knuckles were almost completely healed. I remember distinctly rubbing my sore hands in the days after the fight and thinking it hurt so good.
Other students lost their fear of him. I had my own respect and no one messed with me. My own respect was the most important lesson that I learned.
That was in the 70's. Times have certainly changed, but human behavior has not.
It seems like almost everyone has their own excuses for perpetuating dishonesty and inconsistency.
When some jock faggot retard knocks down a stranger on the sidewalk, he could just say, "I was just practicing my football moves."
When the same jock faggot retard sexually assaults or rapes some stranger, he could say, "I was just practicing what we practice in the locker room."
Etc., etc., the list goes on and on. Kids, or some kids, are enouraged to practice behaviors in one setting that are crimes in any other settings, and we wonder why they can't differentiate why in one setting it is appropriate, when in another it is not.
And in all such cases, members of the public at large generally will square off and take sides, according to their own need to perpetuate dishonesty and inconsistency.
Either the behavior is appropriate everywhere, or it is not appropriate anywhere. Retarded kids and retarded adults cannot differentiate like this, and that is why our prisons are over-filled, with people going in and out repeatedly.
There are legal definitions in every state for a wide variety of crimes against persons. If every student, from the very early ages, were taught the precise definitions of these crimes, and the punishments for these crimes, there would be a lot less of these crimes against persons.
There would probably be a lot less "contact sports" also, but that would be the price of legal consistency. There would probably also be a lot less communal showers, restrooms, and such, and that would surely interfere with the objectives of the communal homo agenda.
We are human beings - not animals. We are individuals - not a collective herd of group think animals. We are worthy of love because we are each loved by our Creator. To harm one of us with cruelty, is to harm God’s love.
Before cultural cleansing, we were individuals and we were expected to treat others as we would want to be treated. I was told this many times in school and all children’s groups. We knew the value of every human life and soul and we knew all rights were God given to us and to ‘them’. If they lost their dignity and rights, we would lose our dignity and rights.
Psychopaths existed. But most of us would be ashamed of ourselves for acting like animals - devoid of love, compassion and empathy, when confronted by our thoughtlessness by our own conscience or a peer or adult.
That these parents permit this boy to be abused in the satantic cult we call liberal public schools, year after year, says something about them, too. You are a parent of God’s child. It’s a gift to you. He does not make junk and you are not to handle it like junk. Since the first grade, these parents have cooperated in the abuse of their son.
This person needs to call up the local mixed martial arts trainers.
A. Get training.
B. Gain confidence from the training.
C. Destroy the bullies.
D. Tell the school officials to f-off.
Well, skip D.
Wow! I never considered this point. Excellent insight!
The homo agenda! Indeed! Yes!
By the way, I wonder, of all the people who phoned and e-mailed the Boys Scouts this week, how many of them **WILLINGLY** send their children off to the homosexual dominated government schools?
Don't skip D. Find a group of parents to help you tell the school officials to f-off (in a very nice way) at a school board meeting with the local paper there, and camera phones rolling.
D is the rational response.
A, B, and C are behaviors found among prisoners in prisons.
I don't get this. I suppose you think boys and men should sit down to take a leak in a private cubicle.
Think what it is like for an Abrams tank crew sitting buttoned up for 48+ hours straight. Boys and men taking showers, urinating, and such together is not part of communal homo agenda. It is simply a matter of getting things done.
It amazes me how many girly people continue to make this a topic that deserves parental discussion. The solution to bullying is the same as it’s always been - CONFRONT the person bullying you and prove to them that you’re not going to be their victim. Maybe you’ll get a bloody nose, maybe you’ll give them a bloody nose. The bullying will probably stop when the person being bullied stops cooperating in the “game.”
Grow a pair! And for the parents: you also need to grow a pair.
Schools aren’t much different than prison.
When a women is abused is she told to form a committee, attend a government marriage and domestic relation board, with the local paper and camera phones rolling?
NO! She is advised to GET OUT of the abusive situation, file felony charges with the police, and get a restraining order!
Why do we allow children to remain in a abusive school environment when abused women are **strongly** counseled to flee?
And....When children witness domestic abuse in the home that BIG TIME charges for the felon committing the abuse against his spouse. So?...Why is it OK for children in a classroom to witness abuse when outside the school it is considered severely psychologically damaging?
Finally, why are teachers and principals immune to permitting a harassing school environment, when employers are sued into oblivion? Is this like Animal Farm. The teachers and principals live in the farmer's house, while ordinary employers lose their businesses and saving and get to sleep in the barn?
The kid needs to grow a set.
When you allow yourself to be a victim you become a professional victim.
This kid lacks self esteem.
Probably because we have feminized boys in school and society for the last 40 years.
This kid should bloody the bullys nose, dot his eye.
He may get his ass whipped if he does, but that bully will think twice about revisiting the kid.
Hell! Jonah may just get a round of applause from his classmates for standing up for himself.
