And then there are the bullies that are bullies because of bad situations at home.
I took sh*t from kids after a move. I was quiet and small. They knew I was an easy target because I hadn’t built up any connections yet. All of them were from troubled homes in one way or another.
I put up with it for years until middle school - on the way home they pushed to far and I literally kicked the front teeth out of one of them after blacking out in a rage.
Never had a problem again. The guy I kicked and I ended up ok friends, not great, but ok.
Sorry. I forgot size. It applies to small and large. I remember one girl in middle school who was made fun of because her breasts were small.
Middle school was a tough age. Kids were really brutal to one another. High school was a little better because a thin layer of veneer was forming.
I have always hoped I never have to go to prison. a nursing home, or high school. So far I have avoided 2 of 3. :)
