Question

Answer 1

report it an an assault and harrassment.

Answer 2

No one deserves to be treated like this. I'm so sorry that your son is having such a bad time. Buy a bottle of febreeze and tell your son that the next time this kid does that, he is to spray him with it! Maybe even have him make a comment about how bad this kid smells.

Keeping his mouth shut is not the right thing for him to do. He really needs to stand up for himself. This IS tough for you to sit back and watch him go through this, but there isn't really a whole lot you can do except to encourage your son to stand up for himself. This may mean that he have that bottle of febreeze with a witty quip ready to go every single day. Eventually this kid will either give up OR (most likely) get so angry he tries to fight your son.

Not all fighting is bad. To fight to stand up for yourself is good. Especially for males. You might want to teach him some ground rules. I've taught my boys these: 1. You can never, ever hit a girl for any reason what-so-ever. 2. You can never, ever hit anyone younger or weaker than you. 3. You must never, ever throw the first punch. 4. When someone hits you first (to start a fight) your job is to finish the fight.

The funny thing is that most of the time, all it takes is once. One time someone sticks up for themselves to a bully (and that's what this other kid is) is all it takes for it to stop. Especially if they follow the "rules." Both of my boys have been in similar situations, both ended up in fights with the other person, neither hit first, but they finished the fight. Not only did they gain self-confidence, but the bully never bothered them again.

You may also want to consider enrolling him in a martial arts class to help build his confidence. He can learn a lot there, including how to handle this bozo who thinks farting on people is funny. This is something so demeaning, I'm not sure I'd know what to say right away. I can imagine that your son might feel this way. But, to continue to do nothing or say nothing is a sign that he needs help building up his confidence. The other kid continues to do it because he sees it as a sign of weakness in your son, and this kid (like most bullies) is willing to expose any and all weaknesses in your son to cover for his own.

Good luck.

Answer 3

well that just pathetic. one for, for your kid to let him keep doing it and two for the kid to be doing it. HAVE your son eat lots of beans one night...and some in the monring...get him all ryled up and ready so when HE goes into class...make him a second late or something he can go up to HIM and fart ;) or give him permission to slap the kid in the ear next time :D

Answer 4

I would be going straight to the principal office and demanded that they contact his parents .And have a meeting dealing with the boy who is doing this to your son. But stop this before it gets really out of hand. If it don't quit after you talk to the parents then call the welfare in your area and tell them something has to be done . cause it affecting your child. he shouldn't do anything . You need to put and end to this.

Answer 5

Punch him when no one's looking. That way he has "deniablity." Even if he does get caught, some things are worth getting in trouble for.

Answer 6

I'd say have him eat food with lots of garlic and other "aromatic" ingredients and have him return the "favor"

Answer 7

either have him do the same thing to his obnoxious buddy; or give him permission to knock the h3ll out of him the next time (and i bet he won't do it anymore)

Answer 8

he should take his pen and shove it up the other kids @$$
