At least he’s remorseful. However, I still hope the judge throws the book at him. Adults shouldn’t be able to get away threatening to kill children, period, end of story.
Yes, yes,,, he should have contacted the authorities. The same ones who expressly forbid drivers from stopping such bullying. Silly, he did exactly right. Since when can’t a father threaten a boy who is hitting his handicapped daughter.
He might have saved the little ba$tards life by teaching him to think twice. Not everyone is as nice as her dad.
Kids need a little healthy fear of adults. And telling them what will happen if he hits your daughter,,, thats just the “circle of life”, like in Lion King.

Bull. It was a threat, nothing else.
The daughter was genuinely harassed. The father tried everything he could do through the system, they nothing.
If my kid was on that bus, I would have been there the next day to shake the father’s hand. Cause everyone on that bus knows who was doing it.
If my kid had been harassing her, he/she would have had a new crack in the a$$. THEN, would have apologized to the father and been the girl’s servant for a week.
He opened up a bit of “Fear of the Father” that I grew up with and perhaps the little perps never get to experience.
“threatening to kill children”
Hyperbole.
It’s called hyperbole.
LOTS of people say they’re going to “kill you!” if you say anything about her love letter, about her playing sick; anything. Even when they’re really angry, it’s generally hyperbole for “beat the hell out of you”.
Under ordinary circumstances I would agree. However kids that bully a handicapped little girl deserve a taste of their own medicine at the very least. If the school had done its job and protected his daughter from her tormentors he wouldn't have had to take matters into his own hands.
Thankfully as you can see from all of the comments supporting the father both here and in the original article, most people aren't sticking up for the little bullies like you are. It gives me hope for society that apparently most people still have common sense enough to recognize who the real bad guys are in a situation like this. Since you seem to have difficulty, I will give you a hint. It is the bullies who terrorize a handicapped child, not the child's father who is trying to protect her.
