This is getting annoying.

I didn't read all the replies in this thread...but the problem is the parents. These new age "modern" parents are raising a bunch of overly-emotional, whiny, overly dependant sissies (boys and girls) with chips on their shoulders and a huge sense of entitlement.

And when something goes wrong, they're quick to point the finger and blame somebody else.

This is a very touchy subject, but one thing i have to say is bullying in this day and age has changed a lot from when a lot of us here were kids... i mean thinking back to when we were kids it was damn near impossible for people to basically bully you around the clock, where as now a days with the internet, mobile phones and all the other gadgets out there kids can quite easily harass others as long as they want and the reach of said bullying can reach a much larger audience a lot quicker than before meaning more people can end up ganging up on one kid...

As one previous poster mentioned, the psyche of young kids is a lot more fragile than adults who for the most part learnt to grow a tougher skin or how to deal with certain problems, some kids just don't open up to parents afraid of what might come...

Exactly my point, TY.

What makes it harder for some kids is they have a crappy home life too. They get scapegoated at home and then that follows them everywhere. And it follows them most their lives too. If they do not kill themselves as a kid its likely they will as an adult.


But about this topic. I agree with alot of people here. But its a touchy subject and I think it really should be judged on each case. I don't like the blame game, never did. I hate how when someone dies (suicide or not), people point fingers.

My cousin Rener has started a program to help kids getting bullied by teaching them jiu-jitsu. A lot of confidence comes from learning just a little bit of jits; for example, all the knuckleheads in tapout shirts that have only trained one time and think they can take on the world. all jokes aside I think he is on to something heres the website and if you google it some stuff will pop up.

And when some kid chokes out and kills a bully, your cousin might be a liability.

Same here, started working at 13 as a dishwasher in a dirty restaurant and have pretty much been working ever since, all through school. And my younger brother the spoiled brat, going on 19 now, still hasn't had a job. We're ten years apart. Kids are raised very differently these days.
