I was bullied in middle school. Multiple assaults, general torment and the like, but after I got even, everyone left me alone. He probably wouldn’t work these days and it probably only work to then because it was at a Catholic school where they let that sort of thing fly.
I learned how to bully the bully and got him to throw the first punch. From there it was all downhill because I was in control. I was not angry, he was.
Since I was thinking clearly I was able to easily best him, physically, and after that he feared me enough to leave me alone. Everyone did. In retrospect, I’m lucky I didn’t do permanent damage to him.
This is definitely not advice. It’s also definitely not something but I am proud of.
My takeaway from this is that you should never send your kids to Catholic School. That shit went way too far and nobody should be pushed to the breaking point like that. (neither of us)
That’s pretty shitty to hear. Interestingly enough, I went to a (very small) Catholic middle school after being expelled from our public school, and it was completely chill. I got along with my peers and the staff were all super supportive. There was a small amount of religious BS, of course, but overall it was probably my best school experience until I started college.

It’s a mixed bag. That school has a reputation now.
