My son was bullied when he was in third grade. A group of boys kept football tackling him. Even after many visits with the principal. The day he couldn't move to get out of bed, I took him to the doctor who x-rayed him. We were told that his neck was hurt so bad that if they had knocked him down one more time, his neck would have broken and he would have died. I immediately went to the principal and told him my son would never step foot in that school again. I home schooled him for three years until he went to middle school.
