LOL. One day after lunch, the Black boys thought they could call one of the Asian boys who didn't speak English that he was Bruce Lee. So, one particular boy decided to prove them RIGHT and kung fu their asses in the hallway. No one was harmed but it let the bullies know that they aren't picking on some punks just because these students were ESL and most of them were smaller in size.
We all laughed AT the Black boys and no one ever messed with the ESL students again. I don't condone kids fighting back but there are a number of ways to let bullies know that they need to sit down somewhere. Even taking your kid to self-defense classes can boost self-esteem and provide a defense mechanism if need be.

Oh, I think I can one-up you. LOL in elementary, once a week we would have one of the students from the disabled class sit in on our class. We had the same student every week and he'd been coming for almost the entire school year. One day, one of the boys in our class decided to make fun of him (we all made fun of each other, but kept the disabled boy out of it. We really liked him and he was nice), he couldn't speak and he could hardly walk...he used crutches. I guess the taunting from the boy got on his nerves because his face got completely red, he threw his crutches to the ground and walked up in the boys face. We just stood around with our mouths open, the teacher had to come pull him away. When the disabled boy left the class, we laughed SO hard. The boy who was teasing him was going to be beat up by a disabled kid.
