Dan Rios Top Commenter UConnIt's just a title that's meant to
mislead you so you're more likely to clickon it. Rather irritating
if you ask me.Reply Like March 31 at 11:59pm55
Juanita Sullivan Top Commenter Prizm AviationThe title is
perfect because it gets you to read it. This mother is doing forher
kids what more parents should be doing. She is trying to drive
homea point and the article does a great job of that.Reply Like

Seth Schaub Thousand Islands Secondary Schoolyou are just saying
that its not real reid because you probly think youshould allow
your kid to get away with anything.. you don't know if thisblog is
real or not you haven't searched it.. or you would most likely
findit or something very similar.. not all young adults think that
there kidshould get everything and then they are stuck up brats
that just yell andscream to get there parents attention so when
they get to high schoolsomeone will push them down even if they
push others down inelementary school because they will be weaker
then the ones that learnfrom the hardship of lifeReply Like April 1

Elvisfan Harb Top CommenterOne thing that upsets me in the
bullying issue is that we see that bullying kids as anormal part of
growing up and I totally disagree with that..we need to start
teachingour kids when they are young that bullying is wrongit
should not be accepted as anormal part of growing upsome kids are
not born with a quick tongue..some kidsare more sensitive than
others and dislike confrontation..that is okaywe need tostart
teaching our kids when they are young that in diversity there is
beauty andthere is strength.Reply Like Follow Post Edited March 30

Hamzeh Qreini Garden Associate at The Home Depoti think what the
article means is that if one kid teases another that callsfor
suspension. in our day that was normal not everyone will
likeeveryone and things like that dont need to be made into bigger
deals toprotect our children from. bullying of a more intense form
is different butname calling is a normal form of bullying.Reply

Qreini Yeah but really hardcore teasing can be very
damagingemotionally. I agree that if it's mild, purely jokey or as
we say in englandbanter then yeah you need to learn to cope with
that for sure.Reply Like March 30 at 2:47pm11
Eleanor French PerthHamzeh Qreini, you state that "name calling
is a normal form of bullying".Are you saying that name calling is
fine? Or that certain forms of bullingare acceptable?Reply Like

Ok, agree on the gun thing. So stupid.
Disagree on the bullying thing (and don't worry mom, schools
never do anythingabout bullies anyway, too buys chasing the
boogeymen from the gun example). Notto mention her example is
extreme and in no way how most people feel. I know whatshe's
getting at, but I don't like how she seems to be dismissing the
very real effectsof bullying. It is NOT acceptable.
And I agree that kids are overprotected and less able to cope
with failure or badthings. This is a very real problem, well
documented. And no, this doesn't contradictmy stance on
bullying.Reply Like Follow Post March 31 at 12:18am

Bernice HarringtonNo one is stopping her kids from playing
gun-related games at home.Sleeping and chewing gum are also normal
childhood behaviors, but kidsaren't allowed to do them at
school.Reply Like April 2 at 9:09am13
Christine Peters-Thompson Coaldale, AlbertaThe problem with
Bullying now a days is that we have way to broad of adefinition of
what actually constitutes bullying. My 12 year old son getsaccused
of bullying by a teacher for throwing the ball too hard at theother
team during a game of dodgeball in gym class. How ridiculous
isthat. Is it not the point of dodgeball to hit the players on the
other team.Can he help the fact that he is stronger than the other
players. Today wereally are way to sensitive and are raising way to
sensitive children. Youcan't always get what you want in life and
you have to learn how dealwith rejection. The only ones who really
truly get what they want are thebullies (politicians,
lawyers).Reply Like Yesterday at 3:00am13
Kathryn Parker Banquet/Office Manager at Harry's Steak HouseI
think the point the author was getting at is we are encouraging
ouryouth to take everything to heart and to be overly sensitive to
whatothers say. No it is not acceptable to be aggressive to other
kids. No,picking on other kids is not alright, but what is more
important is to teachthese kids to brush things off and to not be
so devastated by snideremarks that teenagers make. She is pointing
out that by being so overprotective as parents and coddling kids we
are depriving them thestruggles that teach coping skills, problem
solving skills, ethics, andcritical thinking skills, just to name a
few. Those same struggles...failuresand successes, also teach kids
to be driven, to work past their barriers, tocompromise... the list
goes on. We need to focus more on buildingcharacter in out children
rather than giving them a false sense onentitlement that has become
all too common in young people these days.Reply Like Yesterday at
