Holy crap. I agree with willravel's approach. However, wrt the third point - I agree that self-defense is important, but in this case, with a K/1st graded being bullied by 5th graders, martial arts classes aren't going to help this particular situation. I think, if anything, the dad was too slow to bring in the lawyer. After the first incident I would be contacting the 5th grader's parents, and the second would be lawyer time.
I know this is an extreme example, but I'm once again glad we homeschool.
