Bully gets beat up

Your responses seem to acknowledge that your son was a bully at his last school but you're claiming that since you told him to be more gentle and not fight at this school then nobody should call him a bully here.

That's not really how it works, unfortunately. There's a lot more to being a bully than just hitting other kids.

I'd be willing to bet money that he's acting like a bully at this new school. And based on all your refusals to see reality about the situation and your kid, I can certainly imagine why and how that happened. Bullies aren't born, they're made.

Not team OP but this is false. OF COURSE they sometimes do. I've seen it more than once in just my extended family.

You seriously think that a kid is a known bully at his previous school so much so that even his in-denial mother recognizes it, he switches to a new school, everyone there calls him a bully, and it's a mere coincidence?

No, I didn't address any of that. I was referring to Pp (your?) asinine suggestion that no kid ever plays the victim and accuses another of bullying when no such bullying occurred.

Own up to your stupid statement. Or I guess you can make up more crap.

NP here, and you are an idiot. The PP didn't write out the entire situation and context here in her post, reasonably assuming that OP and other readers would understand that she was making the statement as it applies to the situation OP described. Unfortunately, some people are pedantic nitwits (for avoidance of doubt, this is you), rendering her entirely reasonable assumption false. Sigh.

Yeah, no. Kids make up accusations all the time, including "being bullied.". It would better serve PP's point (and yours, presumably), to acknowledge this fact but then point out why it does not apply in this situation, than to make silly over broad statements that are on the face untrue.

I'm sure this flies over your head, moron.

That wooshing sound? That's the point you're missing. Are you immune to context in all areas of your life, or is it just a treat for us? Also, are you the OP? It would make sense - she's displayed the same limited cognitive capability as you have.

...so in other words, you have literally zero substantive comeback, and have progressed to 100% personal insults and lashing out. Pathetic.

It sounds like your son has retained some of his rough behavior from the previous school. Either you aren't sharing everything here, or there are some things going on at school that you don't know about.

why are you so angry? Did you miss your medication this morning?

He may have reduced using his hands to push kids around but it sounds like he is still doing so verbally and that's how he is earning the label of "bully"

[Anonymous]

This warrants a meeting with the school admin.

Sounds like your son is a bully.

They have also taken to hitting, kicking, punching , and pinching him. He is not defending himself because he has been told not to fight.
I explained to him that calling somebody a Bully is calling them a name which is a form of bullying. Especially if the person is not bullying. I've also told him to defend himself.
Any better suggestions?

With the current culture of no bullying it seems to me that bullying is still happening at an alarming rate. I’m sorry your son is himself being bullied. Have you spoken to his teachers and asked them to observe the situation? Maybe if your son knew his teachers were watching knowing you had spoken to them he might feel more empowered even if he doesn’t retaliate. If it escalates after speaking to the teachers make an appointment with the school administrator. Often an involved parent helps the overall situation.

How’s the bully doing today?
