Of course, the teacher who was harmed most likely did not deserve to be attacked, but we should keep in mind that the child was not stable as he was being attacked not only by the school (i.e. bullies) but also at home possibly making him feel threatened in a sense (still does not justify his actions but does give him some sympathy.)

He needed guidance and a role model, he never had that, nobody to emulate. We ain't all privileged enough to have 2 parents that love eachother and want to be together, some of us need to put some effort in and find someone who we can be inspired by His mum wasn't strong enough, but even if he had a father whose to say the dad could've controlled him? it's up to the individual to find that inspiration to be a good person

I feel the word gets thrown around as if it means, one person deliberately insulting or physically harming another just to cause that individual harm with no gain. Really though its the person perceiving themselves as being bullied where the trouble lies, for example a child with older siblings could see no harm in jibes at one another. They then do that at school for what ever reason and continue their day. The person they said it to doesn't sleep for a week and devolops a complex that then amplifies to point of the reasoning it must be bullying. Such a tricky issue to deal with.

Oh, man. when he cried I welled up. I love hearing stories of ppl turning their lives around for the better. Hearing his story made me thankful that my parents got me and my sisters out of where we lived because while I was s good kid with no type of criminal mindedness. when I went back to visit old friends I hung with in elementary school 8 yrs later, I found out many of them ended uo criminals with records, with at least one dude being. One of the 3 I visited, of whom I had considered my best friend from kindergarten thru 3rd grade and was the one ALL the girls wanted, and had told me the most of what happened with our elementary school friends had told me he himself had been locked up twice but was at the time in college and was literally studying when I unexpectedly showed up. He said he learned from his ways and was on the right track at the time. He then said something I thought was striking - He said he and some of the others envied me for moving, believing I was so lucky. The thing is, I was actually shocked that so many went the criminal route except for maybe one. He seemed to get a lot of bad examples of life from his much older brother and it showed, early. While I don't know if one of the other guys I visited, while with the guy who became my best friend in the 4th grade thru when I left in the 7th, had a criminal record but he was in a recording studio trying get his rap career going. I could tell he didn't like me when we were young (I was born the day before him but he was more the serious type while I was the class clown of sorts and we are both darkskinned) but one day about 3-4 yrs ago, his named popped in my head and I decided to Google him - Dude was a sheriff's deputy in another state who had won a prestigious award. I was floored yet elated for him. Anyway, SOME ppl CAN change for the better if given a chance and this man's journey warmed my heart.

The custard creme part had me crying, and not in laughter. Struggle is real and if you’ve never been thru struggle, you ain’t got your eyes open.

[@tobiasteichman9389]

I don’t think u have to go through struggle for you to realise how hard it is. It’s called being empathetic

[@E.t.c-]

@@tobiasteichman9389 having empathy doesn’t compare to going thru struggle yourself. Someone with 500 mil in the bank could be as empathetic as they want. But they will never know the true feeling of struggle until they have been down in the dirt.

Having slept on the streets when I was young the biscuit custard cream really made me laugh. The little things in life can make a hell of a difference to someone’s daily routine

[@GlennDavey]

I had a housemate catching me sneaking spoon-fuls of my own jam, and realised what dire straits I was in. "you're just trying to get sugar energy!" It was a really nice house I just over-extended myself and wound up in an "embarrassment of finances". Was skin and bones before I got money again. I've had other times on the noodle diet, but that was the closest I've ever been to 'struggling'. Long time ago now. Edit: dang what a useless comment this was. Other people have it so much worse than I ever have,

Started crying half way through and couldn’t stop. His story just proves what’s wrong with the system. The school, social services, the council, etc. Just imagine how many more young people out there are going through the same thing, thinking there’s no light and the end of the tunnel. The youth need someone to guide them, someone who will point them in the right direction when they can’t find that at home.

What absolute bollocks. Is that what you took away from this? Typical Britain. Blame the victims, blame the weak, blame the vulnerable. Solution? Give em a low-skilled, low paid job. That'll shut them up, won't it? What works is proper investment in support services, in education, in giving people things to aspire to.

Parents are one thing, but the world is a brutal environment. Just please educate them on the brutality of it all. I had to learn the hard way and it's messed me up mentally ever since. I wish I fully knew how brutal it was. Maybe then, I would be better prepared as an adult. Sometimes I feel sheltered. Sheltered kids suffer the most. If I fully understood homelessness for example, I would've never tried to run away when things got tough. Because things get worse.

At the end of the day wether anyone likes the reality of it or not everyone makes a choice good or bad they have either benefits or consequences. I'm glad he's made the choice to stop living the criminal lifestyle but I question what they were going to charge him 10years for because it has to have been something pretty bad for a 10 year sentence.
