This is really the issue right here. Our schools neither allow children to play freely to make up their own rules. And certainly if any children decided to dole out their own punishments, that would be met with immediate hostility.

- unishark 6y ago> Yeah, school nowdays tolerate bullying much less. I'm not convinced of this. School is now largely seen as a day-care service everyone has a right to, so even when bullies get expelled, they often just get put at a different school to cause trouble for people who's parents care less.
