My little brother is getting bullied. What should I do? The kids that
are messing with him are only a year or two oler them him, they're all
in middle school and I'm in high school. All they do is pick on him
and call him names, but it is really having a bad affect on him. I
know Taekwondo, but I don't want to have to ruff them up unless it's a
good idea. Please help me; I'm really at a loss.

These days, most schools view bullying as a serious matter. I suggest
that you talk to a school official about this. Please don't take the
matter into your own hands; if you attack these kids, you might be
charged with assault, and the bullies' parents could sue you for
damages.

I found that here:

..."    * PARENTS  Contact your child's school, anonymously, and ask
if there is a bullying policy.
    * Then, if assured your child won't be exposed to greater risk,
inform them of the events that transpired, including a date, time and
place.
    * Follow up with school authoritie. Ask what action has been taken
and how your child will be kept safe if his identity has been exposed.

Hope this helps...

Thanks for your help guys. I'll talk to the school and see what happens.

I came across a book that may be of interest...
