Question

Answer 1

Work on your kid's self confidence. I like the martial arts idea. (And if you get a chance, beat up the bully's parents and tell them to quit slacking off and do their jobs.)

Answer 2

I am a teacher. I have experience teaching kinder and 1st grade, and bullying is a problem. I see a lot of bullying coming down from the upper level grades to the lower level grades. Some of the kids in 2nd are imitating the 5th grade kids COOL actions.
Our school has integrated a Character Education program called KEYSTONE. It is an awesome program that teaches kids some great character traits (forgiveness, respect...). Sadly, some teachers don't take the first 20 minutes to teach it. So, it has been somewhat successful. I have seen a great change in the students that I had last year (1st grade). They learned some great lessons about how to treat each other. I would ask the school, your child's teacher if there is any available character education going on in school. You can even go to the library and get some information for you child on these character traits that will build his confidence and self-esteem.

Answer 3

Bullying is a natural human behavior that extends from animal dominance. Every animal social group has a leader from some kind of confrontation. The book "Lord of the Flies" depicts what happens to innocent young children if left unchecked.

For your son, have him take a martial arts class to help his self-esteem otherwise he may always have an inferiority complex. Many times, other kids knowing that he knows martial arts may back off. And there is a risk where other kids may want to challenge him. But that is the nature's course. Self-defense is still a necessary part of it.

If you think about it, it is actually unnatural for humans to not fight. Historically, human civilization has not been at war only like 200 years total. Rest of human history has been at war somewhere in the world. If President George W. Bush was taught not to fight, US would never have responded after 9/11.

Answer 4

My kids have been in Karate since they were babies, and nobody, and I MEAN NOBODY messes with them. From time to time there will be a bully that isn't aware, and they're easily taught a lesson. Last summer my son got jumped by 3 boys that were all bigger than he is. He whipped all 3 very quickly, and they are now his friends. Training in Karate will teach your son how to take a bully down before a fight even really starts. They won't know what hit em. Good luck, and I'm really sorry about the bully problem.

Answer 5

When you say kids are bullying your kid what do you mean? Is this physical or verbal abuse? If it's physical then there should be adults at school who should assist you with this problem - and I think the biggest thing kids feel in this situation is ashamed because they don't know how to react. It is important to build your kid up and tell him it's ok and that he has your full support - also encourage him to talk about it if he will - depends on the kid - this will help you to see what is really going on. If it's verbal what is being said - again help your kid to see past the words and value himself for who he is - I am no expert but I think you should talk to his teachers or other people to find out exactly what is going on - bullying is a horrible thing and can be damaging. Sorry I can't say more than that.

even as a newborn isnt given the right volume of interest at abode, it can lead them to experience indignant and lonely, which may lead them to commence performing out antagonistic to different children. Its a skill component, they experience no administration at abode, so that they conflict to dominate different smaller children in case you want to get some skill. So certain, i'd say that youngsters who're exceeded over by way of their mum and dad are extra probably to bully. yet I wouldnt say thats the case of the final public of youngsters on the prompt or that we've a plague of lazy parenting. you're making some very wide generalizations. I wouldnt call what you stated the case for the final public, extra like the minority. My youthful ones, my stepson and little sister, do no longer communicate again, they're polite, and we do discipline them and coach them even as they misbehave. they have chores and expectancies and that i wouldnt say they have extra toys then the traditional youngster did 40 years in the past. certain, we artwork, yet we guarantee that we supply them the interest that they favor. A stay at abode be certain isn't necessary for a contented nicely behaved newborn. youthful ones were having lunch in college for 100 years, so I dont comprehend the position youre going with that. the final public of folk i comprehend develop their children a similar way. certain, there are some who dont be certain their children or who dont pay interest to them, and its very unhappy, yet I wouldnt call it the final public. there are countless different causes of bullying. i changed into bullied like loopy even as i changed into in grade college, i changed into the scrawny underfed youngster whose mom turned right into a inebriated and who didnt have a dad, my sister went through a similar. certain, i'm only 19 so it turned right into a lengthy lengthy time period in the past, yet its some thing thats been happening for a lengthy time period. in case you seem at any action picture or e book from 100 years in the past about youthful ones, theres bullies.

Answer 7

The only solution I can think of for ending school bullying (and bullying in general) is to teach our children to be nice to others. Treat others as you wish to be treated: Respectfully.

I think in your case, many students of martial arts gain confidence and aren't as affected by teasing in school as others.

Try that. :)

Answer 8

That is the serious problems we are having in all schools on planet earth.
Throw the pots and pans at the dirty old men in office with their rudeness and self prides with self discrimination on planet earth.
Ask them to trace the error they had created after independence out there on planet earth.

You need to teach him to not look for trouble but not run from it- which is what you ARE teaching him to do. He needs to learn to defend himself and you need to teach him when it is time to defend himself and not become a bully in the process.

My mother would not allow me to defend myself and it goes far beyond child hood. I was big for my age (tall) and we lived on a dead end street. I was not catholic and very one else was. I had to go by every house to go to the school bus stop.

They mashed mulberries on my new shirt, pushed me down, took my toys away from me, and more. They would surround me and dare me to defend myself. I'd end up going home crying and my spirit defeated. Finally mother allowed me to fight back.

Several of the up-street catholic kids came down and their taunting was relentless. Mom heard & came out and demanded they tell her what was going on or what I had done. One said that I was a "p***" and he was going to whip my a**. Mother said "You want to whip (my name)'s a**? Go ahead, son get him!"

I beat him and kicked him and got him down in the dirt and beat him some more-not another kid friend of his helped him. I beat the living hell out of him. He earned it. But that stopped the bullying. But long term harm had also been done to my psychological state and I ended up dealing with it in my mid 30's at great expense.

You need to consider well that there are bullies out there, that realistically you have to fight sometimes to stop the bullies. Take him to a martial arts class, let him learn self defense and restore his sense of self and security, that you are protecting him and giving him the tools he needs to last a lifetime. I love my mom, she did the best she knew to do but was wrong. Sometimes you must look at what you are teaching and see beyond the intent to the repercussions and the real lesson that needs taught, Bullies understand only a stronger force, and in reality they themselves are weak but must pick on others to feel "strong" themselves. So STOP making your child a victum!
