How many times has your child come home upset about something that happened at school, but wouldn’t talk to you about it? If you found out it was because they were being bullied, what would you do? Well, one father took justice into his own hands. According to a report on the Today Show a man in Florida boarded his daughter’s school bus to defend her from middle-schoolers who were allegedly “taunting, hitting, and even throwing condoms at her”. The 11-year-old girl has cerebral palsy and the father’s lawyer says she is now under suicide watch. Even if you don’t condone the father’s behavior, you can see where he is coming from. Who wouldn’t fight for their child?
What do you think?

I think he went over board on it, but I mean at least he DID something about his middle schooler being tormented on the bus. We read and see all these news stories on how kids are killing themselves over bullies. At least this dad tried to do something.
PS – The story I saw said the kids were pulling opened condoms over her head.
