Bullying must be different now?
I'm fairly young, and I've seen bullying, been bullied, and bullied others.
No one ever killed themselves.... :-\

Parents don't teach kids how to "cope", nor do they teach kids manners and the right way to treat people...which is a recipe for trouble...
Overly sensitive kids+kids who get their way+no punishment or consequences for actions=a effed situation.

I think you've summed it up very well!

Man I remember being in school there was always one or two kids who would get bullied every day really bad for years and years. There was one kid who was the son of the police chief in our town. People would pick on him constantly! We would just walk up to him and punch him or throw him on the ground. Well the police chief ended up sending in an officer to talk to all of young kids made it even worse on him. If I was being bullied like that every day of my life I would end up hurting someone really bad!

If I was getting bullied bad every day I would smash someone in the back of the head with a stick or do something. Make people think your crazy so they wont screw with you anymore. You might get in trouble but in the long run it would be worth it.
I remember this one dirt bag kid was getting picked on by the seniors. Well he had enough one day in the cafeteria he took his pencil and stabbed one of the kids right in the head. No one messed with him again after that.

Teachers have all the power in their hands to stop bullying, atleast in Finland, but they don't, they usually don't care.

How can they stop it? Bullying will always be a part of society. It always has and always will be. If your getting bullied you have to take a stand! It might have to be extreme violence to get your point across. I'm not saying you have to shoot someone but you have to kick someones ass.

Its not the same as it was growing up. Back in the day, you had to do it directly in someone's face and when you got into a fight, it was settled after the fight was over and pretty much forgotten after a few days.
Now you got cyberbullying where people can anonymously bully and make fun of someone Getbig-like and fights are now broadcast on youtube and video and its never really settled because its forever on the internet and because of that, beef can never really be squashed
Naw, bullying isn't the same as it used to be especially when a complete pussy has do it without getting his ass beat

Because you had to do it face to face....you couldn't talk shit behind a computer screen

We talked shit on the phone, three way calls and all that garbage. I don't really see what the difference is. They still see these people that are bullying them face to face at school.

Zero tolerance. Detention every time bullying comes to teacher's knowledge, of course always after chat with both sides. Message would be clear, and the bullying stops immediately when the atmosphere doesn't permit it, and the young new students can follow the older students.

I was a kid man. 10-12 years old. I wasn't nearly as bad as some people.

I've noticed ,nowadays,kids don't have the thick skin we have.. It's so sad,but at some point,you must fight back.. I asked my son.. When someone messes with you,it's being hit that you're most afraid of,correct..? So once he hits you,the fear is gone.. Now he has to pay for what he's done.. He had his chance ,now take yours.. ! I don't think fighting in the streets is a good thing,but sometimes you must fight fire ,with fire..
I was often bullied when I was younger,but I never thought of hurting myself.. Once I hit Junior High,I lifted weights,hit the boxing club,then realized,they don't know how to fight..? To me,it was very ,very important to bring my sons to the gym with me.. All parents need to teach kids how to defend themselves.. Teach them how to throw their hands.. Parents think Karate teaches them that.. To me that shit looks like they're dancing..? LOL.. Throw your hands violently ,at those who want to hurt you.. Break someone's jaw,or nose.. That's how you stop bullying.! You'll see how quickly you make friends,or.....you don't make friends..Either way,you'll no longer be the victim..
I remember,a few years back,I was with my son,and a little crew of boys were looking at him.. So I asked him,what's that about son.? He said nothing.. I told him,that does not look like nothing.? He said ,well dad,some girls like me,and they like the girls.. So they keep telling the girls that I'm soft ,and if they see me talking to the girls they'll beat me up...! My blood boiled,I tightened up ,and had to remember,these were just kids..
So the next day,I get a call at the shop. My wife tells me,go to school,Little Worm is saying some kids want to jump him.. I get to the school,I tell him,enough all ready..! You're fighting! My son says,really..? Okay.. ! So we go outside,and none of the kids were there.. I get to the shop,and they're across the street... ! My son says that's them Dad! So i tell him ,take your shirt off,you're getting it on,right now ! We approach them,and I ask ,what's up with you kids and my son.. He's never said two words to you ,and you want to jump him.. So one loud mouth says,cause he's a bitch ass guy! I said ,okay Lil Worm,which one..? He said I don't care.. He points to the biggest one.. They square up and the kid starts swinging away.. Mind you,this kid has not touched my son once... Then he drops his hands and says Phuck it,I ain't fighting this Punk..!? So i told him,you had your chance,leave my son alone,or next time,I'll make sure he breaks your jaw.. I looked at the other kids,and asked them.anyone else..? They walked away,and I heard one kid say,we'll be back..!
So about 20 mins.go by.. I'm loading up my truck,and here some ruckus behind me,I turn around,and some guy looks at me,and yells.....YOU KOW HIM!!!? He points to the kid my son was embarassing.. So i look at him and smile... Then I told him,they're kids,it was your kid against mine... Then he yells again.. I got hot,all over,I yelled PHUCKYOU,and said what are you gonna do.. Then he says,wait ...Let's talk about it.. I told him Nah.. You want to be crazy,now let's get crazy.... ! I told him,me and you ,let's go to the back of my shop,so no cops come,and we get arrested..! He talls me,believe me,you're gonna lose ! I yelled,you wish.. Show me then.. I promise you,I won't lose.. He tells me to calm down. I tell him to go Phuck himself..
I tell him again,let's go to the yard,so we don't get stopped and arrested......Then he looks at me,and says.......I AM A COP ! SO I told him,your son is the way he is,because of you! He bullies til someone stands up to him,then he backs down..! He apologized for being aggressive,and we went in the shop ,sat down and had coffee and talked it out.. Now this guy is one of my best friends....! My son and his son are super cool,and he even comes by the shop and helps out,and he is one of the most well mannered boys,I've ever met...
Sorry,once I start typing,I can't stop..!

Phone tag wasn't nothing, most people would just hang up.
But I will say that there was this kid named Steven who I bullied for years in school smacking his glasses off and calling him 4 eyes and stuff....until God decided to pay me back for my shitty attitude and blurred my vision.
Needless to say, I was bullied a little bit in high school because I was a freshmanbut it stopped when I was in the 10th grade when I threw one of them off the 15 foot balcony of the gym facility and knocked out the other ones front grill by smashing his face against a gas meter on the building. After that, I didn't have any bullying problems....in fact I had a few people look at me like I was some fucking crazt lunatic. I'm surprised that i only got suspended for 5 days for that shit but I think it was because they were the aggressors.... ;D
But that being said, the difference is that when you bullied someone, it was direct and in your face when I was growing up.
Now its a bunch of pussies text messaging, webcam, photomorphing, and other fag shit behind a screen.

Good story, and you're a good dad! I hope to be that kind of father some day!

A lot fo this shit has to do with parents who don't take interest in their kids lives. I always said, if a kid fucks with mine I am going to that kids house and beating ths shit out of his dad right in front of him. If it happens a second time I am burning their house down while they sleep after I ensure their doors won't open. Sometimes you have to fight fire with fire.
Some bigger guys tried to bully me once and I overheard them say they were going to get me after school. I went home at lunch, brought back a full size kitchen knife and a hammer. I had them hidden in my jacket. After school the kids pointed at me and said get him. I pulled out the knife and hammer and like a fucking maniac started screaming at them to bring it on. I went ape shit. A couple of the kids jetted and I chased after the others screaming like a mad man and they took off. If I would have caught them I probably would have stabbed the fuckers to death. The next day their ring leader comes up to me and apologizes and says he wants to be friends. I told him we'd never be friends but we can go to school in peace and not fuck with each other and sure enough they never fucked with me again.

I really think it's be careful who you fuck with. You never know if the other guy is carrying a gun a knife or is just plain fucking insane. I remember a news story where 4 fast and furious asians were fucking with another guy while driving. Cutting him off, pulling up next to him and threatning him and shit. They hit a traffic snarl and the cars had to stop, the other guy got out of his car and shot all 4 of them to death, right in the fucking middle of rush hour. Some people are just nuts and you never know what triggers it. For me, you can fuck with me, but once a threat is made to my friends or family then all bets are off. I litteraly turn into a maniac, uncontrollable. Over the years I have learned to chill a lot, but I still have that beast sleeping inside of me. My dark passenger.

Most important power on our planet is called adaptation. I've been through horrible shit throughout my life and I just adapted and it made me stronger and better.
What is most important with kids tho, it's always their parents' fault. Nowadays, at least in my country, parents are too focused on themselves and loose very important link with their kids. When I was younger I could see huge difference between my own family and my friends' families - they didn't have any kind of contact with each other. Parents were absent most of the time or just didn't care, didn't want to care. All they did was giving orders and punishing for bad behaviour. They never tried to understand underlying reason or talk with their kids. I could literally feel distance between kids and parents.
As a parent you have to be a friend of your kid. Not kind of friend that is equal to you, but more of an authority, someone you both trust and look up to.
Kids didn't get weak. They became alone. People are too selfish nowadays to create good family. They wanna be "independent", "free" and "live their dream" and they sacrifice family for that purpose. People nowadays can't suck it up and sacrifice their own career or even lust, being bored with their partners for the sake of their kids and they divorce or just run away. It's really pathetic.

Thank you so much.. That made my day..

A few things:
I partly blame the parents. If parents had taught this kid to fight back and not take shit from people, he could have done something to make a point. I'm not an advocate of violence, but hey, at what point is enough, enough? Sometimes you have go to drastic measures, especially if people are bringing harm to you.
Next, why is this kid on a Social Networking site if that is where his bullying was taking place? Hello?? Disable your account and leave the site.
Lastly, sure it's sad that he took his own life, but that's pathetic and I have no respect for that. Life gets rough sometimes, that's the way it is. Anyone can take their own life. It's harder to deal with and work through your problems and that's why people cop out and do things like this. If I go home and jump out of my apartment window right now, that's it for me. However, no one should be thinking "Oh wow, things must have been so rough... blah blah blah." They should be thinking "Damn, I always thought he was better than that..."

when i was in high school there was this kid that was from italy really nice kid, got pick on by all the black kids at school(not saying blacks bully , just saying thats who he would get bullied by) for being a foreign and with a heavy accent , a year later during summer break, he grabbed his grandpas shotgun went into his restroom and blew his head off, his grandmother found him dead.
I felt really bad for his grandparents, i can still remember them sitting there at school telling us what happened, the grandma was so emotional she didnt speak the whole time.
-
So, so sad. Poor kid, never vot really enjoy life...this truly makes me sad.
-
Jamey should've spoken in class like Jeremy did instead of wasting his time crying on the computer.
The only sad part about this story is that I just wasted 5 minutes listening to Anderson Cooper whine.

If I Was being bullied I'd rather kill the bully then kill myself

Agree with everything you wrote.. We as parents,need to stick up for our children.. A lot of parents look for ways ,"NOT" to help our children out.. We send them to Dr's. and medicate them.. His parents should have gone down to the school ,and raised hell.. He needed to know his parents adored him,and needed him in their lives.. He needed them to fight his battle for him,because he just didn't have the survival skills to deal with this.. You need to have your childrens back 1,000,000%.. Even if at the end you look like the asshole. At least they know you'll do whatever it takes to keep them safe..

dude, what you said in the first paragraph...you know in most states it's felony arson to burn down people's houses...and if some kid effs with yours, you don't go attacking their parents...Don't be admittng that shit on here, then when something does happen (it might be unrelated to this topic), they will go thru your post history to see how you "are" a violent person, and even as a kid you "were" violent, and over-reacted. Don't think that they won't...
Hopefully you were talking out your ass---because if you do have kids, they will end up being the bully...
