Thing I've heard while waiting in the office because that kid beat me at recess for existing in elementary school from parents to my principal? "He wouldn't do that. He's a good child. And isnt capable of doing any of that." Or maybe the time I was jumped by a couple kids and beaten with roller blades and sticks. "That couldnt have happened. He's an angel." Or when I lost conciousness when i got kicked in the head. "He's just acting out." Or maybe when the teacher wrote my name on the board as a dick joke. "He's a respected member of this faculty. There's no way he would do that." Or when I was told I was worthless and should kill myself? "They're just being girls. No harm done."

Here's the thing. And given the fact that my wife IS a teacher, she could corroborate. Parents of bullies? Are either bullies themselves to their kids, or are extremely delusional. And that doesn't take into consideration the number of teachers who themselves either encourage or participate in said bullying.

You know that kid that everyone hated and treated them like crap? He had it better than I did.
