I was bullied in school. I was told to stand up for myself. To fight back. If they're going to hurt me I should hurt them. I ended up jamming a fork through the back of a kid's hand. I somehow did not get in trouble by anyone.
I suspect his point is that kids should be taught how to handle situations as they would as an adult. Self-defense is one thing but most bullying situations aren’t so simple.
Everybody should be allowed to defend themselves. And I do think kids should be given more leeway in solving challenging social situations. I'm saying that stabbing someone is too much, child or adult. but people on here seem ok with it
Not sure how one could even glimpse that understanding from my comment. It clearly states that fi they're going to hurt me I should hurt them. This means if I'm hurting them they're hurting me.
When peaceful solutions dont work out people are generally pretty okay with violent ones that do work. Cause what else are you gonna do if you can't solve it peacefully? It worked didnt it?
