No matter how many of us can remember being bullied when we were in school, the sad reality is that it's just as much a fact of life for today's kids as it was back then.
And while some parents have managed to nip potential bullying situations in the bud, it's common for affected kids to go without this kind of cooperation until they can finally get away from their peers.
As a result, parents can find themselves at just as much of a loss as their kids when it comes to what they can do about their bullies. And considering how much the things that happen to us as children can stay with us later in life, those unseen answers are sorely needed.
For all these reasons, one young boy's courage in the face of his own bullying episode has resonated a great deal with those who remember being in his situation and fear the same for their own children.
