I agree !! I think I will hold out until she gets into her teens, Emergencies are what I consider them for, although some people live on them.

Cyber bullying is on the increase, the thing that frightens me is that young kids are now using mobile phones to delivery anonymous threats to thier class mates and even teachers. Time to take a stand I feel.


Its strange what will stick in peoples minds sometimes. My nephew the other day was on a forum (probably a heavy metal one) when someone whom he's never met before called his mother a bitch. He hasn't been able to forget about it or let it go. Swearing at people in forums is bad enough but swearing at family members that are not even present on the forum is a horrible thing to do.

I was nevered bullied really...I was too unpredictable...If 4 guys jumped me, I would get a hold of one...sure the other 3 kicked my head in, but the 4th was worsed for wear...Also I made sure they all got was coming to them when on their own...I remember once 3 guys jumped me for being a smart ass, split the head of one of them with a chair...the other 2 backed off when their mate was covered in blood head to toe...I got expelled for a week...You gotta make a stand...

Today 1 daughter is black belt one dan, and the other black belt in samurai karate..It helps...I sleep easier... :lol:

Also I boxed since the age of 16...

The Word you picked up on was " Bitch" the word you ignored was Poor
as in I feel sorry for her. Sympathy do you understand the words.

I never intended to hurt your wife but you clearly intended to hurt me !!

That makes you a Cyber bully. DT I still say, you owe me an appology, and on reciept of that I will appologise to your Lovely wife.
