Bullies have existed since time immemorial, and they still exist everywhere, from the workplace to the community, and as always, in the schoolyard.
It would be nice if that unpleasant reality of interpersonal relations could be eliminated, but the question is how.
Bullies don’t usually respond to reason or cajoling, but they often do respond to brute force. Many of us remember being tested by the school bully, finally standing up to him and planting a solid punch right on his nose, and suddenly seeing the bully turn into a reasonable, even pleasant human being. This applies to raising kids in general, where the bully child constantly tests the parent and sometimes only responds to brute force rather than cajoling and pleading.
The problem is that liberals and lefty politicians have fallen for the whole “self esteem” movement, so kids are given way too much power and never experience a reprimand more forceful than a “time out.” And to make sure that is so, laws have been passed so that any discipline more forceful that “let’s reason together, Johnny,” or “please go to your quiet spot Susie” is seen as violent child abuse, to be punished by incarceration or having the children removed from the parents care. Now a new city ordinance in Shawano, Wisconsin puts parents in a double bind, and there is a good deal of confusion and disagreement about how fair the ordinance is.

P**s on fining them whip there asses that will stop that s**t
Maybe, as long as the definition of bullying isnt too broad and allows for some sort of self defense mechanism.
Yes she is. The federal government has been overreaching for many years. Taking away parental rights, this has to stop. Look at what is happening on college campuses because no discipline by parents.
Fine the parents because the government doesn’t allow you to discipline your children? What will that accomplish? Nothing. Because the children will learn that others will be responsible for their actions and they will learn no accountability for their own actions. They should learn that they are accountable for their own actions. That is what discipline is for. If they learn that they can have others held accountable for their actions , they will start using the excuses that they are not responsible for it. Your own bible states that to spare the rod will spoil the child. Look where we are today in society. A bunch of spoiled, bullying, crybabies.
Fine the bully in the white house !!! Media won’t cover !!!
Welcome to the PEOPLES REPUBLIC OF WISCONSIN
Actually I agree this should happen, also parents that encourage racism and sexism should be fined as well.
how about we start fining our so-called leaders for their bullying?
This is wrong. The parents probably don’t know that their kids are bullying and if they spanked them for it they would be in trouble as well. If the government would but out of the parents and their disciplining of their children then maybe but as things are not so much.
