I'm going to have to disagree with you. The only time someone was stupid enough to try and bully me was in high school. We both got a weeks suspension and a ticket from the on campus cop. You know what that was a small price to pay for the next 2 years of peace and quiet I enjoyed.
Bullying sucks, but on the upside standing up to a bully can have positive effects.
You're disagreeing based on the fact it worked out fine for you? I see. It's also interesting you have "on campus cops" to protect your arse.
ok first yes it was just my experience. second the on campus officer (singular not plural) did not "protect my arse" as you put it. after the administration suspended both me and the bully the officer ticketed us, for fighting in school, so I had to go to juvenile court. So in my SPECIFIC case not only were both parties justly punished, yes i agreed the suspension and subsequent juvenile court visit were justified, but the bully stopped his bullying and not just against me, i never saw him do anything to other people either.
funny side note: the teacher was willing to let it go, and the bully begged me to let it go. I refused and walked straight to the office. It is in my specific case unethical to do something wrong, get caught, and not admit it and take the punishment.
but hey maybe thats just me.
