I fully understand a parent's concern if they believe their child was bullied. The term has become very common today and often misused. When many of the situations are exposed what most of us consider to be bullying was not the case. Very often prior verbal attacks incite responses....deserved or not.
Comments as follow smack of bravado and we all know bravado can be very foolhardy. Let's be smart about what we teach our kids.
"I told them my son would be only punished because he didn't hit this guy 3 times. I also warned the school board that if anyone attacks my kid and he feels he can take them then he can do to them as he see`s fit. I also told them my son would be in school the next day and would not be suspended or they would be speaking to my lawyer at their expense."

In any case laying hands on another - violence. Taking matters into your own hands- vigilante. Call it what you may.
"Beating another into submission"? Holy crap,over sensationalize and dramatize much? Are you a journalist? LOL Yeah,whatever. LOL
If a tree falls on your ex in the woods and nobody hears it,you should probably still get rid of your chainsaw. Just sayin'....

You know what, when you put people on your ignore list, they disappear from your life. I wish people didn’t quote them in their posts. It’s like a zombie returning from the dead.

My son was never taught to use violence? Another kid put his hands around my sons throat. I'm guessing he should have allowed the other kid to choke him?? My son attempted to stop that kid from breaking into a locker that belonged to the little kid being bullied.
My son did what was right, stop someone from stealing who was also the school bully and when he asked the kid to stop he was grabbed around the neck. At that point if my son can take him he can do whatever. My son punched him in the face. The school admitted that it was on video.

I put peoples quotes in my answers or rebuttals, so there is no misconception about who, or what I am talking about.

I question what you taught your son. Could he and should he have seek assistance from faculty? He put himself in a situation where he was at risk. Guess the flip side would be what if he couldn't take him.
Again just saying he choose to escalate the situation.
