My wee brother has just started secondary school and he came home from school sick today. He's been saying he's sick for the past few mornings but he evidently wasn't. It has emerged that he's been getting bullied by two wee scrotes and I feel so damn helpless. It breaks my fucking heart because I love him so much, more than anybody else in the world. I was worried that this might happen but he seemed to be getting on fine. He has a speech impediment and the problems with his hands are such that he's unable to bend his thumbs.
He encountered no problems at primary school and was very popular there, but I knew secondary school would be a different fish tank. It's so frustrating that I can't protect him, and that it has begun so early. The school has been contacted and the two boys have been in quite a bit of trouble since they started. I also found out that, after my brother left today, the two boys were picking on someone else..until another pupil, who was at primary school with my brother, lamped one of them in the gob. I fear this is only going to make things worse.
For all I know it was just a bit of 'boys will be boys' slagging, but my brother is quite timid. He says they've been calling him Asian slurs. I got that at secondary school, too. However, mine were due to the fact that I was always stoned
Time to teach him the liver shot
