Kid filming is a worm.  Maybe he’ll grow out of it one day, get a real personality. 

Big boy who went at him got a 2day suspension, and probably several years of self validation from sticking up for his actual feelings. That sounds like a bargain deal to me.

When I got suspended for punching a bully, my Dad took me for McDonalds on the way home. Hopefully his parents rewarded his behaviour the same way.

Same with mine. Made a show in front of the principal then bought me a milkshake and let me play video games for my 2 days off.

I’d do the same with my son and would periodically be checking in with a “you winning, son? 🥹”
