  1. Had issues with my daughter being bullied, sat down with the headmaster of the school, and her teacher, they did nothing. It was afterschool care that got them to sit down and talk it out. They became friends. But the school wanted nothing to do with it. We laid a complaint with the board of education….no response at all.

  2. Governments can’t stop bullying it begins at home. Kids are being exposed earlier and earlier to violent games and media and are often left to their own devices much of the time. The level of aggression with young children is alarming. Poor little kid he was beaten by 8-9year olds let that sink in for a minute. There is something wrong with our society if this is becoming the new norm

  3. I blame parents who still, in 2025, don’t understand that hitting and yelling at children is abusive or who just don’t care that it’s abusive. This is how bullies are made, by parents who bully their kids.

  4. Why not just take the law into your own hands at this point. The schools won’t help, and neither do the bully’s parents. Sometimes you just have to deal with it yourself.

  5. Bullying is at every school and the teachers do nothing about ir they tell the kid to move away from the bully but the bully will follow and intimidate them,i believe the parents need a good hiding to see how it feels.just saying

  6. My Grandson was bullied 1 kid and his mates when he attended a new school at yr 7 .
    Now he trains at a boxing gym and his trainer is so impressed with how is going that he is sparring with kids a few years older. So God help the bullies now he has now stuch up for a few other kids that have been bullied. The teacher's are useless as they tried to get us to just forget about it and told our Grandson just to stay away from them but we were insistent something had to be done and in the end the kid was suspended, because it almost caused his father to deal with it because the kids father said I can't control my son. But that changed when he seen my son inlaw .
    But thankfully it didn't get to that and it never should
    The same kid is known for picking on smaller kids.

  7. When my now 22 yr old daughter was in primary school, I'd never forget the day the mother of another child approached me and told me that her daughter was getting bullied by mine.
    That same afternoon, I talked to my daughter to figure out why because it definitely was not a learned behaviour at home. It turned out she was just angry from losing her grandfather at that time and just didn't know how to cope.

    So I flipped it around and advised her that Pop has always taught her better than this. It's ok to be angry but not ok to hurt others.
    The following week the young girls mother approached me again and said she is so glad she spoke to me. I told her no I should thank you because it helped me identify my child's pain and stop this behaviour before it escalated. My daughter apologiesed for her behaviour on her own accord and everything settled.

    We placed my daughter in martial arts to channel let out and control that anger.

    From then on all the way through high school, she always stood up for others, getting bullied.

    P.S
    The 2 girls became great friends and are still friends to this day.❤

  8. This is pathetic, how can this happen anywhere let alone the school yard! WTF is happening in world, I am sorry but I would take matters into my own hand and will not care what happens after that!

  9. SCHOOLS IGNORE
    OTHER PARENTS IGNORE
    STUDENTS ST SCHOOL IGNORE
    TEACHERS IGNORE
    EDUCATION DEPARTMENT IGNORE
    SEE SOMETHING SAY SOMETHING.
    EMPATHY NEEDS TO BE SHOWN.
    Get off their phones.
    No computers in schools then we stop them at home. 🙏🏼

  10. We apparently have a no tolerance to bullying in schools but the bullies KEEP getting away with it an when a kid stands up and defends themselves, that kid gets in more trouble than the bully. Make it make sense!

  11. So sorry to hear…but I agree this has to stop…I know this teenager who is an Australian born and is was radicalised to con vert then he did still he has been bullied till now this is not to good when you have 2 weak parents tbh now the boy wants to change school but is very scared to leave home some days..he even tried to jump the school stairs but these bullies watch and threaten him and scare him principal brought him home but still not good enough these should be monitored they can’t let them get away with it…over and over…I pray ur child gets better and this doesn’t happen to other children now in the future And change by the government to schools should be to the extreme 🙏🏾💔💔🙏🏾🙏🏾precaution to save our babies they are not ready and don’t no how to fight this is disgraceful
