I think bullying is a result of bad parenting

I am sorry to hurt any Bleeding Hearts out there, but you are doing your child a HUGE disservice by teaching them that they do not have to learn how to handle bullies, but instead become dependent upon some authority figure to always come to their aid. The world is beyond the reach of your protectiveness, and they are going to be even more lost and fearful than they are now if you fail to teach them that very early in life. You are creating a floundering adult who will live a life as a hopeless victim.

the bully or the bullied?
The bully.
Probably because the parents never talk to him the importance of empathy.
I have a step brother who's like that. Textbook sociopath. Have not seen him in years nor do I care to. From time to time people ask me where he is and my reply is I don't know and I don't care.
We have kids being sent home from school for things like fingernail clippers but they turn a blind eye to bullying. Which may be the reason why kids are shooting up schools.

First I ever heard of "Black Twitter," was concerning this Story. Seems blacks around the Country are accusing the boys mother of being a racist because there is a Confederate Flag somewhere in their yard.

They also attacked them for having a GoFundMe account for this boy........BUT his Mother did not set up the Account! Some dude up North did........

It is clear that the racists radical blacks around the Country will use any Story to push their Agenda of Hate! They accused the boy of calling blacks in his school the "N" word, but there is no evidence to prove their charges are true. They don't need or care about proof, just making the charge against him is enough to fuel the fires of hate they are trying to stoke.......

My prayer is one day these fires of hate they fuel will consume them!

I'm not going to automatically assume that everyone who has the Confederate flag is racist but after it was used in the fifties and sixties to oppose the Civil Rights Movement, it's not really a good look

sometimes, people can be so naïve: we just recently had a call from a dear
ex-neighbor, whose family actually settled the community that we live in,
and now he, unfortunately is semi-home-less, due to his remaining immediate
family 'selling' the property where he lived! yes, it was a third his, but he chose not
to have his name put on the deed, and so it was sold, right from underneath him -
and the ones who sold it are definitely NOT poor...he has many health issues also,
but continues to do odd jobs and 'help the poor and needy as best as he can...
his kind of person, is mentioned in the Bible, many times...

he's in his 60's and none of his multitude of relatives give a damn about him...and yes, we
do what we can, but he is so hurt and humiliated that he usually decides to sleep in his car, as
opposed to asking for anything - he's a very special person, a person that one usually doesn't
meet in their lifetime - today he called and told us that he is desiring to go around to different
cemetaries as a ministry and 'cleaning them up, as most around these parts are not kept up
by the churches where the deceased were members, probably generational - anyway, the one
that he talked about today goes back to the 1700's, and was really a mess, BUT, most of the
headstones had 'confederate flags, newly planted beside them..., obviously the church members
or family members are to busy to be responsible for their maintenance, but not to busy to go by
and place a 'confederate flag' beside their graves! that official 'war' is supposedly over, but obviously,
'underneath, 'it is not'...nor will it ever be, for a 'civil-war' is brewing heavily underneath the gloze...
don't get ready, be ready!!! hold God's hand and put all of your Trust in Him...

we have a new neighbor who has placed (2) confederate flags right in plain sight on each end
of his porch...he is also a great disturbance to the neighborhood in unusual ways...

also, when hub and I went last sunday to visit a friend, she told us that she
believes that her 'new-neighbors' are militia, just going by how they are behaving and what
they are doing, and usually late at night when most are ready for bed - shootings, other loud
disturbances and such...

we know we are where we are supposed to be, and wouldn't have it any other way than our
Lord Jesus' Way for us...

Speaking of Militia........... :)

When I get my fill of the liberal gibberish on Yahoo News, I turn on my Roku and tune in to NEWSMAX. Yahoo News is so far left, at any moment I expect to see them with an Infomertial advertising a sale on Cycle and Hammers. Dey be saying: Order a Cycle now and we will throw in a Hammer for FREE! Just pay Shipping and Handling.

Then again, NEWSMAX is sooooo far right that I fully expect to see an Ad on there one day selling Time Shares in a Montana Vacation Retreat!

all of the resort 'come-ons', sound good to many, but at our age, we've got so many hammers, that it would
blow your mind...
