Both of my kids are white and they were each bullied once at school when they were young. They did as I taught them and no one has bullied them since.
Bullied kids need to defend themselves. I spend years being bullied, in large part because my parents taught me to practice non-violence. Don’t fight, turn the other cheek, tell an adult.
Bullies feed on a kid who tries to walk away and tell an adult.
It only took one incident where I turned around, faced the bully and planted him on his backside.
