Great birthday present..
It was my son's birthday yesterday (12)..
On the way back home from school, he was beaten up by two lads quite severely and unprovoked. His friends just watched. Apparently, they've been goading him for awhile. I wanted to get the police involved but he didn't want me to call. As far as I'm concerned this is assault. If not bothered this time but I have said if it happens again I will have no hesitation, providing there are witnesses and he hasn't provoked them. In the meantime, my wife has written to the school.. not that they can do much. How ironic it was his birthday and nation anti-bullying week. I felt for him last night.. I really did.

Poor kid
Bullying's an awful thing to happen to anyone.

Black eye, headache and broken pride I think.
Always a tough one to deal with.. Maybe you could advise what our options are?
