119. HEY. Get it through your thick skull.

Responding to bullies with angry verbiage or outright force

IS NOT
ITSELF
BEING A BULLY

And I chose the path you're advocating, by the way. I didn't fight back. Guess what it got me?

More, and longer, bullying. Had I thrown just one punch it would have stopped. My parents were just like you, and told me to "let it go", to "take the high road", to "prove I'm better than them". It didn't work. It never does.

The only thing your attitude gets kids who were or are being bullied is more of the same.

Stop being an enabler.
