    While I wouldn’t advocate accepting this behavior there’s got to be a better way of addressing it. Sure, the victim shouldn’t have to deal with the accused, but there’s got to be a way of teaching a kid a lesson that doesn’t ruin their entire future. That kid has their entire adult life ahead of him and it is in all of our interest for him to become a responsible, upstanding, contributing adult

    Simply expelling a kid is a failure of the school system as much as it is a failure of the kid

      There is a simple solution. Is either kid’s life permanently ruined currently?

      Then don’t permanently ruin the life of either kid. Otherwise the bad guy is u.
