I think the mom should have done more to help her son. If 7 or 8 calls to the principal about it didnt resolve the problem, she should have moved him to a new school.

And really, I dont think theres anything that can be done about bullying. I've read both sides of peoples' arguments here and there are things I agree/disagree with both. I'm the kind of person that if I were being bullied or someone was giving me a hard time, I'd just approach them straight up about, but I know thats not something most bullied people can do.

In short, I think bullying is just one of those things that can never be resolved because there will always be people who dont care or dont know what damage they do and theres just no stopping it. I would personally like to solve these kinds of things physically, as in beat the shit out of people who give others a hard time unrelentingly, but that obviously is not the best way to go.
