This question is for parents, primarily parents of older children or even grown-up children. Has your child ever been bullied in school, or has he or she ever have BEEN the bully? If so, how did you deal with your child being harassed (or being the harasser)? Was it hard for you as well (on both ends since generally no parent wants to hear about their child being bullied OR being a bully). What grounds did you take to improve your child's ways (or situation, depending on their position)?
Also, has your child ever been involved in a fistfight (whether he or she started it or simply defended himself/herself) or was "jumped"? How did you handle the situation?
