-—Schools have been trying to get a handle on the Bully thing forever
I’d say its been since the 60s when the ACLU attacked school discipline. When they say bullying is a problem, where are the teachers? You are right about government schools

That’s what Karate lessons are for.

Simply telling the kid that you won't tolerate his bullying of another student and threatening to inform school officials would probably suffice. Only after that fails would you consider physical involvementHave you ever been in a fight?

This kid is no hero, he is a punk using this situation to punch someone.Simply telling the kid that you won't tolerate his bullying of another student and threatening to inform school officials would probably suffice. Only after that fails would you consider physical involvement.
============
I feel you haven't seen the video. It was a one punch knockdown of the bully to stop a beating in progress and then he immediately ran to check on the blind kid.
I feel the blind kid being pummeled is likely grateful for the more immediate response.

The line for a long time has been, that if you want to simulate the public school socialization experience as a homeschooler, take your kid to the bathroom, swear, blow smoke in his face, beat him up, and steal his lunch money.

There should be more of that sort of thing. Public shunning is underused.

This heroic boy is a mensch--- a man --- because he knows what God gave him fists for: to defend the innocent and defenseless. And he did it in an admirably controlled and measured way: one good punch. One good punch!
If the school officials do not fully reinstate him, they are the biggest bullies of all.
