Bullies

Aaron has been bullied by the same boy for , oh, I'd say a good two years now. This big bad bully has done everything from taking pencils away from Aaron to stealing books from him to punching him in the stomach for "bumping into" another student. Last year, in junior high, we talked with the principals and Mr. big bad bully was brought in for a conference. Aaron said things improved for a long time after that. But, now we are back to the same problems in high school with the same boy. Aaron tip toes around the school trying to avoid b.b.b. (bid bad bully), but there is no avoiding him on the bus ride home.

Yesterday, Aaron came home reporting that b.b.b. hit him in the back of the head over and over on the bus. This is where I recommend the entire world always assume you are being watched, because we are! In this case, I'm glad, because it was all caught on video tape and b.b.b is suspended. Frankly, I hope it puts a terrible hardship on his parents and he gets in big trouble...I mean learns how to treat people kindly.

I found a couple of websites that might be useful for other people in the same situation:
