    My kids’ experience has been pretty good in the schools they’ve been in, especially in the high school. I’m not saying there’s no bullying, but I’ve heard plenty of stories from them where they and/or others stepped in right away and put that shit down.

    I’m also plenty aware that this is unusual, and am quite thankful for my school district.

      Well I don’t know about your district, but in mine, we had to take my daughter out of public school and put her in online school because her bullying was so severe that she was having self-harm thoughts and the school did virtually nothing.

        It’s very much a case by case. I didn’t have issues as a kid even though I was a total dweeb but I have coworkers who have done the same as you even though they were in good schools.
