Is the bully bigger then him? I'm not one for violence, but I do admit bullies are a problem.

Sometimes standing up for himself is the best source of action, however if you don't want to go that route, have him record what he does at school with his phone, or record a sound file, get some sort of proof, once you have that proof, you could sue the parents of the bully, it would probably help if your son has witnesses to also help if you pick that route.

It's also good to ask your son if the bully is making mean remarks, if he is, make sure it isn't making him depressed or making him feel like it's true.

Thank you for your response. He is not bigger, just more aggressive. Other kids have noted the same thing about this boy, but the school doesn't seem to care.
I think my son is handling it much better than I am to be honest.
I was hoping this boy would somehow learn his lesson and maybe get a taste of his own medicine.. that usually is the only way some people learn to change.

Sadly, not all people change, even when they do get a piece of their own medicine, you can't change a person, mainly you don't know what's going on inside the home, what he is gooing through, etc. If your son is handling it professionaly, then let him do what he thinks is best.

I remember hearing a saying when I was a kid once a cheater is always a cheater, I asked my mom what it meant, she told me say my loved one cheated on me, and we break up, then got back together again, by saying he changed, odds are he didn't change. I'm not saying that all people never change, it's just rare.

I suggest not using a spell to make him feel the same treatment, your son could also ask why he's treating him poorly.

I wouldn't always advise that you tell someone being bullied to fight back. Many schools often will try to punish the victim of bullying if they respond to the bullying (like pushing the other student back) even though it wasn't their fault that they had to get involved. I suggest trying to go higher up than the principle or even superintendent at your school if need be to get them to recognize the issue.

Thank you for your kind words and thoughtfulness.
I will try to let things be for now and hope with this most recent incident, things will change for the better.

if you feel the need to put a spell on his bully a binding spell that will turn their negativity back on them and wont back fire on might work
as for fighting back it hard to get away with at shool and that school sounds corrupt so thats a no on that vitims get in more trouble than its worth for self deffence at school unless its after school or away from cameras and such

What about a protection amulet like the st.Christopher medal charmed under the full moon or casting? Or a Solomon seal like the flamming arrow?

If you can present proof of the attack I would get a lawyer and sue the other boys family for assault and battery

Put a horse head in the kid's bead, he will never harm your son again!

Seriously, I actually recomend that you take your child to self-defence classes not so that he can pick on the bully or others but so he can defend himself when teh time is right because if he keeps dismissing this child's behaviour it can get extremely ugly for either your side, their side or potentially the laws side.

As a parent, encouraging your child to fight back is not right. If the school authorities are not as responsive as you mentioned them to be. For beginners, injury is very likely if it becomes a brawl and it can lead to your child being lessoned instead, not the other way around. And you will be called due to your approval of the matter, even if it was self defense. Right now, you are in authority to question the response of the school to this matter, since it is the safety of your child we are talking about. Why is that? If violence was to be considered as a common incident which they do not look into seriously, you can question the integrity of the school, and the policies which the school is following or that governs the school. Especially for the security and safety of your child. This isn't the common grounds we are talking about where strangers are walking. It is the ground where people learn to be something more other than immature. This isn't part of learning. What they have experienced in their days isn't something to be tolerated by the new generation since something good has happened as a result. Like them being hell.

Though if self defense is necessary, it must come out of the boy directly. As a parent, do your job fighting the bigger problem = unreasonable people including the parent of the child and comforting your child at the same time. Tell him to be with the company of good people all the time, so people can look after him.

Always remember: It is bad to initiate the problem as a parent, it is wrong. But I understand where you are coming from. In time, your child will learn to fight his own problem, until then. Support him the right way, because if not, it can lead to a different story.
