Yeah mainstream society doesn't give a damn about kids committing suicide, being bullied, having pregnancy pacts, shooting in the schools, wearing revealing prom dresses, etc. until it impacts white kids outside of the inner city public school systems.
They need to be focused on why this is happening beyond focusing on these bullies and acting like life for white kids is supposed to be Heaven--que pasa?! They also need to go beyond attempting to attribute everything to a diagnosable and medication-treatment worthy disorder. This is already an over-diagnosed and over-medicated society. Kids can't even fail a couple of tests (which is hardly a hardcore pattern of behavior) without going to the disabilities services center and getting a documented disorder and potentially going on medication.

OH for God's sake. Who gives a rat's patootie about "mainstream society" caring when it's happening in your own home to your own kid (or to you).
It may be okay with you for kids to be taking matters into their own hands, ala Bruce Lee, and that sending them to Kung Fu classes is somehow adequately preparing them to cope with bullies, but that's not reality in most situations!
AND, in the case of a kid who cannot possibly Kung Fu his way out of a bullying situation, are they supposed to go Columbine and teach those bullies a lesson by bringing weapons and shooting?
And, I don't have any idea what "show out" means, but I'm betting it's not something my mom would have done.
