rules for a fight >.> Only thing you should be worried about is if they take out a knife/ gun. Otherwise a good fight is a good fight :), but like you agreed to rules and stuff >.> usually when you get into a fight dont you just get into it? Never heard of something like this before lol

Rules for fight is No rules....As you are a kid...Weapons would be idiotic!!! Someone posted that you just punch them in the stomach. I did that to a bully and it hurts the kid a little bit....not enough to make him bleed but enough to make him cry like a wuss. Anyways...At your age...fighting is nothing. It is more like a slap fest than anything else.

To Marril...HAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!!!!
Using the phrase, "I will take away internet for a week", is just too hilarious. Do you honestly think that would work? I am sooo sorry that your not thinking straight. Kids do not feel threatened by that...They will "agree" at first and say they won't do something, but when they are in school or somewhere else that the person who said the ^above phrase^ would not be there, would still go on with being a jerk or w/e. You need to know kids!!!!
Ok...I was being a bit of a fool by saying, "words mean nothing". Words do mean something in some circumstances. Not to kids!!!!!

Soooo with that said...I will once again say, "FIGHT"!!!! Beat him up bro...LOL

The internet thing was an example, but remember that the idea is to hit something you have influence over and that the kid likes. Get them used to the paradigm that if they disobey, they're making their own food, washing their own laundry, getting their own selves around town, paying for their own TV/internet/drugs/whatever, and so on and so forth. We're talking about 11-year olds here. An 11-year old is a little kid. If he can do all that kind of stuff for himself at that age, then okay, he can fight as much as he likes.

They sure will be if the authority figures actually follow through. Get it in their heads that you never bluff, and that when they disobey you, Bad Things(tm) happen, and you'll find they take you seriously. The only reason they aren't threatened is because nobody ever has any backbone and never punish children for anything.

How can you punish kids anyways???I don't know how they do it up in "Canada", but here in the states you will get in trouble for that....AKA Abuse!!!! Even a little spanking when constitute abuse...I have seen that kind of stuff happen to families. You spank a kid softly and here come the 5oooooo's!!!!

But no matter what you say...Fighting is the way through this....Being born in the Bronx has made me says that(haha, Joking).
Fighting is seriously a good idea...
Isn't the saying Stand up to Bullies...I sure hope they didn't mean that you would stand up in front of them and say, "If you don't stop being a meannie then I will not be your friend anymore". Cuz if that is soo then that is one lame Phrase to live by. Only way you could actually get away with "talking" is if the Parent/Guardians confront the Other Parent/Guardians and tell them whats going on and how to resolve the issue...Thats the only way I can think of that words could make a difference...But then again as I have stated before, KIDS DON"T LISTEN TO WORDS!!!!!
 
Well there usually are unspoken rules like:

- no weapons, just use your fists
- no jumping in aka one on one

Seriously though, be careful who you fight.... my uncle got stabbed in the 8th grade after he beat down this dude that was talking crap about him... some people are just straight punks and will take out a weapon when they lose.

Nothing I listed constitutes abuse—oh no, you have to wash your own clothes and can't watch TV, so call child services! It's so unfair that you aren't getting spending money from them, and that you don't have an internet connection! Get them thrown in jail for not driving you places! Give me a break already. Parents aren't obligated to do any of that stuff. They give you a roof over your head, keep the house stocked with food, and so on, and past the basics they don't need to do a damn thing for their kids.
 
1. If you agreed to rules for a fight, then do not break them. The fight in question is about pride anyway. How could you take pride in breaking your word? Even if he breaks the rules and beats the snot out of you, do not go back on your word.
2. Don't ever agree to anything you don't plan on following through with.
3. Most of the people in this topic are idiots, and I'm inclined to agree with Marril pretty much 100%. (You may never hear that from me again.)
4. Taking a belt/switch/paddle to your kid ain't abuse.
5. Most of the people in this thread are idiots.

:eek:

My Goddish, what have I done? Up is down, black is white, Canada has an effective military, and Star Trek Enterprise didn't suck!
 
1) Why I wasn't there to help him;

I was at home, I don't usually like the next-door kids, so I didn't see a reason to go over there. I thought my bro and him got along pretty well, apperently I was wrong. I wish I had been there to knock some sense into both of them(oh my newton, I am agreeing with Marril. This is only the second time :0).

Are you serious????
That is complete Abuse buddy. Now unless you do it soooo softly where NO marks are shown then perhaps it is NOT abuse, but most likely there will be a mark. DFS would so take your child if they see marks on them and such. man if you don't know how to operates here in United States then you are dense...Sorry to say!!!! It is funny really...We make the kids "wussies" but when they are 18, we expect them to be brave and courageuos so they fight meaningless wars and lose there lives for a dictator. Thia country is Messed up!!!!

I agree with Chromecatz on this...This should be locked because this is sort of a joke in a way.

She was talking to me actually...She thinks she knows everything...Don't let the Canadian get to u???
thats the only reason why "she" is here. She just likes to start arguments and sound super smart, she doesn't even play this game...She only posts in Anime or RTC...pretty sad....But seriously lock this thread because Marril and some others are being dense right now and I don't feel like getting yet another ban...Plus this thread is seriously OVER!!!
 
Marril: Did I ever suggest that fighting was the *first* option? Show me once where I said that fighting was the only option against kids. I stated, multiple times in fact, that there is a definate system that you have to go through when dealing with bullies. Talk to the bullies. Talk to their parents. Talk to the system. Do each multiple times. If and ONLY if there is no change in the entire business after multiple (MORE THAN FIVE) uses of each of the preceeding three tactics, then it's time to put up the fists.

Again, take this as an argument between the philosophy of conflict resolution and the experience of conflict resolution. You can say that violence is not an option until you're blue in the face. Until you're faced with a situation where no amount of talking, pursuading, or any other means of peaceful resolution is going to change anything, you have ABSOLUTELY NO IDEA WHAT YOU'RE TALKING ABOUT. Again, based on personal experience, the best thing that ever happened to me as far as dealing with bullies was giving one of my bullies a paper cut with a plastic hockey goalie stick. There was not a single person in any school who was willing to bully me after that particular instance. I did that in the 7th grade. The bullying started in the 2nd grade. 5 years is MORE than enough time for peaceful conflict resolution to run its course, especially for kids. You try going through 5 years of constant abuse where nobody is willing to do anything to help you, and the system even *REWARDS* the bullies for their actions, and see whether or not you are still singing your "nonviolence" junk.
 
Vegeta, this thread isn't geting locked just cuz you want it to, and don't want a ban/infraction. And you don't even have to post here =/
