The first episode of the TV show “Fargo” had an interesting approach to dealing with an old high school bully.

Huh. Somehow the school got their hands on the Obama Administration’s confidential, eyes-only foreign policy manual. Probably passed to them by the IRS.

"Treat the person who is being mean as if they are trying to help you".

"If we defend, we lose".

What is Obama's foreign policy strategist doing sending out flyers to school kids?

And most of all remember rule number 10:

Revenge is best served up cold;)

I clicked all the way through to the story at the Daily Mail.

This is so ridiculous that I think some is pulling their leg.

Anyways, I liked what one wag said in the comments section:

“RULE 10. Hand over your lunch money with a smile”

Some of the dumbest advice I have ever read. This advice may work for adults but will NEVER work for school aged folks.

The best way to stop a bully is to hit them 3 ways: hard, fast, and continuously.

If my kids have to fight back, the school may punish them, but Mommy and I will not.

Parents: get together, start some kind of home or charter school, and pull your children out of government schools.

I keep expecting a "Bababooey, Bababooey" at the end of the article.

I prefer my father’s advice:

“Punch the bully square in the nose.
They will quit, and it sends a message to other bullies.”

As with most training of children, this works best when applied early.

My revenge — hire them, string them along, then fire them.

Their tears were delicious.
