In my day nothing was done about real bullying. My life was threatened on more than one occassion for speaking out against drugs and alcohol (my dad was a major alcoholic whom I wasn’t allowed to see or contact during my teen years) when I was in high school because of police busting parties where drugs and underage drinking were I was automatically blamed for things I had no knowledge of.
I was told by my parents (mom and stepdad) that under no circumstances was I ever to fight back even under circumstances such as kidnapping or rape (their school of thought was that it would get you killed). I know they were dead wrong now.
