"When our son was in the third grade, there was a black kid who bullied him every day on the bus - just picky stuff. He was a big ole boy. Finally hubby had had enough and went to the kids home. He could hear the foot steps of the dad coming. HE was a huge guy. LOL Hubby almost backed down. He told the man what had been happening to Kelly. The man said okay, shut the door and yelled for his son. We could hear him spanking him from outside. Kelly and the boy were friends after that. " GREAT! Good for your hubby for confronting the father. Ya just never know what you'll find behind that next door. Most parents would understand when their children are bad and need discipline. (And some don't)

Hubby sure didn't. LOL Sometimes you just have to stand up for what's right, no matter the cost. In fact, I did last year. The church I was working at fired the youth minister (or rather he was asked to leave). The pastor's wife was jealous of the YM's wifes voice so they engineered a bunch of crap. I was in the office and knew what was going on. At the monthly church meeting where they announced that YM was leaving, I got up and announced my resignation. Boy, you should have seen the deer in the headlights look on the pastors face. The YM was such a nice guy too. Did not deserve what they did to him. So many people came up to me and congratulated me on my courage to do what I did. I was nervous as all get out too, but I HAD to do it.
