Ooops, Me and My Big Mouth.
Yesterday I was having a chat with my Nephew, a boy soldier, about bullying in the barracks....he told me of a lad who had become a target.
Years ago it was sorted out in private...with a bit of a roll around.
My advice was similar....for the victim to stop being a victim.
So, a swift kick to the bo****s followed by a couple of digs usually worked.....you may have got a beating but a sense of respect for the victim would normally cease further attacks.
This I explained to my nephew.
Anyway, today I received a call from my sister...a lad has been picking on my younger nephew who is autistic...this lad's dad had just been round accusing my nephew of being a bully.
She approached him about what had happened, so he explained(autistic kids can be brutally truthful)He stole my ball and pushed me over so I kicked him in the b****** like Uncle Terry said.
Ooops...I didn't even know he was listening
