Mom Takes Action Against Bully

Item: Mom taking action against son's bully/KHQ

More Info: Spokane mom says her 10-year-old boy is being bullied at school and she's not going to stand for it anymore. Miranda Swenson says her son, Mikey, has been attending Longfellow elementary school for a year and since the beginning of the year, another student has been harassing her son. Mikey tells KHQ it started with verbal taunts, which soon escalated into violence. He says the other student has gotten him into headlocks and punched him in the head and face and pushed him up against the wall.

Question: What would you do if your child was being bullied in school?
