This is a public school, so this probebly won't help much... but talk to the teachers, show your concern. At the age of 14, it is very likely that your kid will be bullied, especially if he's all about non-violence in a violent culture. Teach him to react positively to these situations. If he is threatened, tell him to smile at them... Not showing fear, but not showing agression at the same time is a good way to treat bullies. He must remember that he's probebly more intelligent then them, so he can approach this intelligently. If it results to violence, then you can always get the authorities involved or transfer him. It is selfish to deprive a child of the friends he has in this school. ( If he doesn't have many friends in school then transfering him would be a wonderful idea).
i would enroll your kid in a karate class to help build his self esteem... he's too young for kung fu imo
to molly the hippie i preach to my kids none violance why would i put him in a karate class and i don't think his problem is that he lacks self esteem. to bravesirrubin he does have a good amount of friends so that is a good idea not to tranfer him and he does act well in those situations like you said he should but these kids are extemely violent toward the minorities of the school including my sons hippie friends and yes they are all hippies.... my son has come home beaten and bruised with a cop escourt from school and it seems like the school isent doing anything to help in his perdicament. even after i've yelled at the principal and or teachers
fucking BS troll http://hipforums.com/forums/showpost.php?p=3005242&postcount=1225 you have that kid at 12?
I thought something seemed fishy... less than articulate for a father of a 14 year old... I was tempted to respond, "whatever you do don't home school him"!
the kids adopted i did nt think that was important to put in their i adopted the kid when i was twenty. and as for the english thats what years of drugs abuse do to you
Nahhh... "dont get me wrong i still do all the drugs you possibly can with a wife. thats my life story and thanx for reading"
well i thought it might not be a good situation with a kid that wants to do as daddy does and fallow what he does plus all the gov't shit you got to do to adopt a kid i thought i'd stop at least till he's in college
You are either not a real person, Or you still do drugs with your kid around. Niether is good... I shake my finger in your general direction! There... shaken! My fingers might be short, but they can still play the piano!
so either i am not a real person in ur eyes or i still do drugs, for fatc i am a real person and i do not do drugs ever since my kid came into my life
Good for you! Your post in the Introduce Yourself forum states otherwise. As Cat Stevens (and Maude) said... "If you want to sing out, sing out... and if you want to be free, be free...there's a million things to be... you know that there are!"
I bet my post will hlep alot. I am 13 years old and I don't Lable Myself but I would so I roll towards the "Hippie" Side of life. I been teased About it tell him to ignore it. It will be hard at first But just because We love Pace and Nature and stuff doesn't mean people have a Right to try to turn it on the Bad side. Thy are all Rediculus and Jelious. Tell your Son if he needs anyone to tlak to About his problems I am always here. He can PM me using your Username is you don't mind. I am 13 and Will most likely no what he is going thre . Hope I helped. Glower
In the real world, there are many in opposition to peace, harmony with nature, and unconditional love... I feel that your son will encounter them wherever he goes, and perhaps it is important to learn how to handle that situation while he's young. May I ask how self defense training is detrimental or violent? Even buddhist monks train in the martial arts. Who will defend the defenseless?
