Boys and fighting?

There is no point in fighting and I don't think it is a joke to be honest. There are people out there who really don't give a damn whether you live or die by their actions and you would not want to challenge that evil unless you are equally fk'd up. Even if your boy did not start the fight I'd consider informing him of this fact because one day if he is prone to getting into fights with people he may meet up with such a person. Being young he would want to prove himself and after school career (18+) he's going to hit the clubs and bars fairly often.

Read the Little Black Book of Violence. :)
 
Hamster...take a bow.. This old gal loves you. Wow...just wow. Sometimes it just takes one stupid ginger to catch a wake up.
All our kids have the most amazing class.... 4 gentle soft hearted kids..someone tell me ive failed as a parent cos my one kid looks like Bart :D
 
There is always more to the story than mom knows .

That said any one going around punching people will meet his match one day and that will heal that affliction .

You are confusing masculinity with class.

The kid doesn't know the difference between a man and a manboon. I blame the lack of decent male role models these days.

Men use their words, manboons use violence, burn things and knock over trash cans. Or moer people wif a wheelspanner coz they checked out your cherrie, if you live in the East Rand.

Yep, degenerates ruled by their base instincts and hormones who think that violence and destruction is an acceptable way of resolving issues.

Believing that more violence makes you more of a man is the same as believing that ****ting all over the street when you get the urge makes you a better man.

Not fighting doesn't make you a lesser man, not outside of Spanner Valley anyway.

100% correct, as is Bobbin's comment.

You know the saying "stille waters hebben diepe gronden"? It's true when it comes to bar fights. Your son must get out of the habit of being a punchbag for whatever reason, whether valid or not. One day he will seriously see his arse. As an ex-publican I have had to step in and stop a few incidents but by then a punch or two had already been thrown. Problem is, that first punch or hit with an object does the most damage especially when unexpected.

A wrong word or chirp to the wrong person (who might be having a bad day) could see someone's lights switched off.

Best course of action for your son would be for him to man up and apologise to both the oke who punched him as well as the regulars at the pub. That will earn him far more respect than him trying to remain upset and seeking "revenge".
 
Boy will be boys and back in the day I was one of the worst. Fighting every weekend and a bouncer at some clubs but I never started a fight........

I wouldn't have survived if I was the same today in this day and age. Fighting has gotten bad and there is little respect for life and limb. Also too many weapons being carried or in nearby cars.
Your son should take like a man, and act as if it never happened.
In battle there are no winners only suvivors.
If he gets his bottom lip botoxed no one will be the wiser.
 
Your son did something to get him punched in the face whether he deserved it or not. He wasn't just standing there and his assailant had some pretext. I find that a lot of people who are unaccustomed to violence act as if violence is something that happens in a parallel universe. If you're going to hang out in places where random people are drinking alcohol treat everyone with a basic level of respect. Being morally and intellectually superior isn't going to save you from a kicking in a confrontation with a drunken manboon. Be aware of where you are and with whom and act accordingly or stay at home.
 
Well sometimes just rocking up at Billy the Bum's is enough to get you moered...

My nose and sinuses haven't been the same since my first visit to Billy the Bum's. My fault entirely though.

Ja, it is of course possible to run in to some psychopath and get your head kicked in for absolutely no reason but, it's very unlikely imo.
 
Seen this before plenty of times... cowards that want to 'prove' something and hit on easy targets without any reason... well alcohol gets them started.

Yeah, all true but, what makes someone an easy "target"?
