He is also significantly smaller and probably about 12 if he is a seventh grader. It’s not like he is a small 16 year old guy who has already hit puberty and has the full benefit of testosterone for years. On top of that she appears to have a longer reach, he is cornered and the bully has more friends considering no one stepped in and it’s being filmed. There is numerous reasons why the kid possibly didn’t fight back, but he should have never had needed to in the first place. Whether better discipline on a school bus or some other kid willing to step in and stop it. I love hearing about bullies picking the wrong victim, but I think if he had hit her he would have been hurt significantly worse and unfortunately the school would have punished him.

It’s not a just world, and if you can afford it don’t send your kids to public school.
