The kid being the bully obvioulsy hit him first and antagonized him so he got what he deserved. Now these experts ar eworried about the message it will send, hopefully it tells kids who are picked on to stand up for themselves, and a lot of times you call out the bullys of actualy fight them they back right down.

I love how they cite "Counceling" as the solution.

Uh huh.

Sure.

Theres too much of this touchy feeley stuff going on now, counseling has its place and probably helps a lot of people, but i bet this kid got amonster boost of self confidence flattening this kid and will help him more than any therapy would. The kid says hes happy about the outpouring of support hes gotten since the video took off.

When I was a kid I was 5'4" and about 110lbs soaking wet until I was 14, when I put on about 40lbs when my dad got me into weights. I got picked on every day of my life until I got to the sixth grade. I'd fight back every time and get pummeled for it. My dad got tired of it and took me over to the other kid's house after one beating. Told the kid's dad what had been going on, and he called his son outside. They stood and watched while we had to fight it out right there. The kid was a lot bigger than me but my old man was watching, which I guess fired me up and I ended up beating the other kid pretty badly. I still got picked on after that, but my win/loss average changed pretty dramatically.

I dont know.

A 16 year who has to deal with 12 year olds (who are half his size) picking on him probably wont have too much satisfaction with "Yeah showed that little toddler"

Fun to watch but that kid has much bigger problems going on.
"Hooray for you...you body slammed a 12 year old. Now go back to being picked on by kids your own age.

There's 13 yr olds bigger than me, but I'd be the one to go to jail if I fight back. LOL

If you swing that's telling the other person you're a big boy and are ready to get your ass beat. Go big kid!

Consouling
Disturbing imagery

Give me a fuckin break! Another great reason why I don't want kids. I would laugh at the school if they said my (if it was the big guy not the bully) needed consouling cause he threw that bully. No F'in way. I'd tell my kid I was proud of him, standing up for himself.

Fuck Michelle Obama... it's the way of life as a kid. And to play on an old saying "It's builds character". I'm not endorsing columbine style shit or any level of bullying that goes too far beyond. But this little type of crap is not anything that should make international news.

When we were kids, fighting was just normal. Its what young boys did. We all had something to prove at that age, and we did our best to do just that. Hell, at 16 I was fighting grown men in bars, standing up to guys bigger than me when Tmall was going to get a beatdown , and beating the fuck out of guys for calling down my mom. And to this day, I have never committed a violent crime.

I never understood the animosity towards kids being kids. No way in hell would I punish a child for standing up for himself, nor would I allow the school to tell me how to discipline my child.

Hell, in the early grades (1-9), I dont even remember ever getting suspended for fighting, ever. And we fought a lot. At worst we spent lunch inside for a day. And guess what? None of us grew up to be violent criminals.
