I don't think I can protect anyone but myself most times. I sometimes think they are probably within reason though. I cope through isolation and escapism. When the present gives you s**t, more t o the past or future. I don't like my habits though.

I can tell you that fighting definitely doesn't work. I lost track of the number of kids I beat the snot out of when teachers weren't interested in putting a stop to it. And there was pretty much always another snot nosed brat that was next in line.

The main viable strategies are likely to collect as much documentation about what is going on and when and/or work with a therapist to develop better strategies for mitigating the damage that might come of the bullying. In most cases, bullies will move on if they aren't having an impact, but there are so many issues with that as a strategy.

It is worth noting that both assault and battery are illegal. They don't need to make contact for it to be assault and any sort of offensive contact can potentially be battery, even if it's indirect like breathing on your or throwing things. The more you document what's going on, the harder it is for the relevant authorities to ignore the problem.

*some police are willing to let certain people slip if they feel their methods are intelligent*

I think certain people would look nicer with bunnies and log log houses built around them sleeping but I think I no longer idealize that vision.

The medium is not really good.

I read an article recently where they were considering putting cameras in the hallways to combat bullying.

The world is thick with hatred lately.
If we can't stop the bullying or the wars the future looks bleak.

Looking recently I noticed that It has now been more three years since I started one of the bullying threads on here. I hadn't realized it had been that long already. At the time I felt the issue needed more attention, and still do.

I was hazed ,harassed ,bullied that lead to assult ,thief and group stalking and harassment that continues to this day as an adult in Juneau,Alaska by the high school graduates of Juneau Douglas High School (JDHS) I was shoved down 3 flights of stairs had food thrown at me ,clothes thrown in trash in gym everyday and in shower . Expelled because the educators and principles children was doing it . To boot my my late father family is wealthy old money Nigerian and the other kids hated me were an international recognized family. The principal went to ohio state where my aunt tenure at .To this day everyone acts like it is all me and I'm nobody because my mother is Southeast Alaska Native , so I must be the devil spawn issues demon.
