I was bullied as a child, I remember the day it all came to a head like it was yesterday. I was on my way back from school and they cornered me in the park, it seemed like there were 100s of people there to watch me get beat up. Just as they started to attack me one of my neighbours waded in and rescued me. It stays with me. My mum went crazy and raced to the school and gave the headmaster a right beasting. It stopped the next day. It had been going on for months, I wish I'd had the balls to tell someone and put a stop to it sooner. Schools are all over this kind of behaviour now. Hope it works out for your lad
