This is great. Don't post much, and don't condone violence.... you sense the but. I have a stammer and always made a joke of it. My son now 23 when he was 14 snapped at one kid in the changing rooms in school and threw him across the room. No jokes after that. Once people realise there is a hard limit to your patience - that limit may be to embarrass them, give them a slap, educate them, make them look foolish - they stop. He did receive proper punishment from the school and us, as did the kid who had mercilessly mocked him. But the school was sympathetic to the circumstances.
