I remember the advice my family gave me before the first day of school. If anyone messes with you beat the hell out of them, if you have to don't hesitate to use a chair, make an example out of them.
Now here's the funny thing: I am not kidding or exaggerating!
Long story short, some kid looked at me wrong, I threw him against the wall and he slid down just like you see in cartoons. That was in first grade and I've never been bullied.
But seriously, don't try this at home kids.
- antdaddy 17y agoon reflection, the actual advice I gave my son was that if anyone ever hit him, he had my permission to hit back if necessary to defend himself. If a bully sees someone isn't willing to be a victim, they tend to move on to an easier target.
- run4yourlives 17y agoThere is defending yourself and then there is actually being the bully. Which were you, do you think?
- biohacker42 17y agoHonestly? Bully. But not often.
- run4yourlives 17y agoExactly. In that sense then I don't take your method to be something we should be teaching our children. No offence.
- menloparkbum 17y agoThis seems highly context dependent. In the SF schools I've been in, you'd get your ass handed to you by 8-15 other people if you did this to the wrong person. Also, if you hit someone with a chair you're going to get expelled, even in the public schools.
