A comment on Son, as soon as someone puts their hands on you.... Parent comment

Parents can't be there for there kids 24/7. On top of that plenty of parents simply don't care. Their kid is a trouble maker and they've (sadly) grown to accept it. You might say that's a systemic problem that we need to fix, and my reply is "good luck".

But that's not the point, is it? We are talking about what advice parents give to their kids. The parents who would read a thread on HN are clearly the parents who care.

If a kid's parents do not care about him, I'd like to suggest that the least of that kid's problems is getting bullied in school.

By parents not caring I was referring to your stereotypical bully's parents, not the parents on HN. Parents going to parents doesn't solve much if one of the parties does not care.
