Glad to see you are not sarcastically challenged after all.
Still, the other thread (with Jenserai Bariman, if I'm not mistaken),
convinced me that I don't have the required energy for your debating style.

So no more opinions from me, just two facts:

1. There are three sides to any bullying situation: the bully, the
victim and the enablers. And the enablers' arguments are usually very
close to ...
Forget it, that was becoming an opinion.

2. C.S. Lewis, "The Silver Chair" :
"All sorts of things, horrid things, went on which at an ordinary school 
would have been found out and stopped in half a term; but at this school 
they weren't. Or even if they were, the people who did them were not 
expelled or punished. The Head said they were interesting psychological 
cases and sent for them and talked to them for hours. And if you knew 
the right sort of things to say to the Head, the main result was that 
you became rather a favourite than otherwise."

Best regards, and hoping your children never go to the Experiment House.
