After he suffered for years, the mom shared that her son finally stood up to his bully by punching him.
In her post that has been shared more than 145K times, Allison Davis explained the events that led to her son becoming suspended from school.
“Five days of OSS [out of school suspension] for beating up the kid that has been tormenting and bullying him since middle school,” she wrote. “I know as a parent I’m supposed to be upset with him for resorting to violence or getting suspended, but I’m not. Not even a little bit.”
Davis went on to describe in chilling detail the years of abusive treatment her son endured from taunting to threats at the hands of his bully, some of which was caught on video, and the school refused to intervene.
