(April 2011) My daughter got slapped in the face at school by one of her friends. Then, the next day, a couple of boys tried to test her karate skills by punching and kicking her. Of course, this is the same day that my father sent me the YouTube video of the tiny Australian bully who got body slammed by his much larger victim. After seeing the video I was tempted to unleash my daughter on anyone who messes with her.
Of course, this is dangerous stuff, and you can’t have kids going around body slamming each other. At least not here in American. What I find fascinating, however, is the concern (by attorneys) that if the school didn’t punish the bullied kid as well as the bully, it would establish body slamming as the Rule of Law in the school. Then, from then on, bullies would be open to being body slammed every time they punched a kid a couple times in the face. And the attorneys are talking like this is a bad thing. Don’t you think that, if the bullies thought there was a real danger of being tossed into the concrete every time they picked on someone, there would be a decline in bullying? Yeah, me too.
My son is the most brilliant kid I know. He also has rocks in his backpack. I don’t know why. I think it is just to infuriate me.
Luckily for all of us, there is now an allergy medication that you CAN take with orange juice.
