The thing that saved me from daily beatings was technology. I got a watch for Christmas. This simple tool allowed me to leave school grounds at lunch and hide out at the nearby Scarborough Campus of the University of Toronto. Having a watch let me know when school as about to go back in. I could make it back just in time to get in the lineup to go back inside.

Zero tolerence programs don't do shit either. All they do is make the bully someone else's problem by suspending him/her.
