know exactly how he feels,been there my ownself.was picked on until the 10th grade,fine upbringing that didnt believe in fighting,stood it until the first day of the tenth grade,and made up my mind on the bus I was either going to get out of a miserable situation,and stop it once and for all,or get kicked out of school and get out of it that way.got off the bus,walked up to the biggest guy in the school who allways picked on me.and when he opened his mouth I hit him as hard as i could in it.one punch,never ever had a problem after that and really enjoyed my last years of school.now i dont hold too much with fighting in school and I know the rules have changed,but i figure I grew up more in that ten seconds,gained more self respect, and lowered my stress level more then than anything else that i ever did.your boy may take a beating,I was surely shocked when it didnt happen to me.but just the idea that i had the courage to do something stopped all my problems.principal hauled me down to his office,asked what was going on and i just told him what was going on.he asked what i'd have done if the other kid had fought back and i told him if he would have tried to get up i'd have hit him again,that I'd had all i was going to take.he told me to go to class and he would be getting in touch with me,I never heard another word about it...nowdays they will probably suspend him,quite honestly what i would do is teach him to defend himself,make sure he knows that bullying and fighting is wrong in school BUT tell him he does not have to be miserable every day,and send him to class.kids have a way of working these things out.if he gets thrown out,for defending himself so be it,let him help you on the farm for a year, that will help him also.send him back the next and most likely his problems will be over.He does have my prayers,I know how cruel kids can be and they are way worse than when I grew up.but that boy needs to know he has the right to a life as he wants it,but he has to go get it,he cant just expect someone else to make it happen.

My Papaw raised "baccer" (tobacco) and corn with the Super A, but the fondest memory was of the sawmill. He owned a small sawmill for sawing "baccer" sticks. The Super A was the powerplant.
