There's not really enough evidence here to be making conclusions, but one can assume that if this kid means business and puts them in their place, they'll stop being roostery and leave him alone. From there, there harassment should stop, and if it doesn't, they're risking another beating and hence treading over the line zz_tophat set, they'd be the guilty party then. Also, I'm not one to criticise the environment which shapes a child, I'm aware my upbringing was flawed, though the sudden explosion of Emo kids is a culture thing and the semi-careless prescription of suppressing drugs in belief that technology can solve all, rather than a side-effect of the distribution of sedative drugs or a conspiracy led by Pharmaceutical companies and Doctors. |

Either way, the best thing to do is to handle it the way he is, and if it continues, get the police involved. Let them use the force if needed. Well no one has a "perfect" upbringing, so no one's holding that against you. As you seen, mine was rather dramatic. But I agree with you that the probable cause of overly depressive kids these days are due to wrongful or mistaken prescriptions to medication that is based off of illegal controlled substances. I used to suffer from massive depression, had suicidal thoughts once or twice, but I didn't take medication for it. I just read one book and I can say that I am a far more happier person than I would have been on meds. I just think that there are some things you can't cure with medicine, only by taking the time to be attentive and supportive can these conditions be overcome. Doctors are moving farther and farther away from that these days and it frankly is a sad trend. I miss the days where a doctor's visit was fun because they actually talked to you as if they were your next door neighbor. Always had a smile on their face, and their most common solution to problems were "He just needs some sun and some root beer and he'll be right as rain." |
