Nope. Not me.

I tend to blame the parents of the kid who’s being bullied.

Even more than the bullies themselves.

I'm a little baffled. Could you explain?

I agree that the parents need to toughen the kids against bullying.

One of my kids was being bothered by another kid. The bully came after my kid from behind. He spun around to confront him and accidentally (really!) caught the kid in the face with his elbow. The bully instantly tried to become my kid’s best friend (after he woke up from the hit). A little violence can go a long way.

But the other point I was trying to make is that I wouldn’t be surprised to see an angry parent whose kid was DEAD retaliate against the school kids or administrators. Stranger things have happened.

I’ve always felt it was more the home that the kids who bullied came from. I went through this as a kid from being smaller and younger than others in my class and it had zero to do with my home life but looking around now and knowing where most of those kids came from they must’ve really had h*ll to deal with at home that made them want to target someone else with their frustrations.
