Today, to teach my 14-year-old son a serious lesson for bullying a child at school again, I grounded him for the rest of the year. He just snorted and said, "Cool, I'll just jack off all year then! Thanks, mum!" and happily retreated to his bedroom. FML

Halloween
A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.
Today, I grounded my son after finding out that he's been bullying other kids at school. He got mad and screamed at me, calling me a "bastard". Instead of defending me, my wife got pissed and accused me of having taught our son to swear like that. I can never win. FML
Today, I finally had it with the redneck bully who's been tormenting me. He was repeatedly poking and pinching me and laughing out loud during class, so I slung him to the ground, pinning him. I got suspended. They only called his parents, who never do anything; my "caring" parents are looking into teen boot camp. FML
Today, I finally stood up to the guy who's been bullying me for the last 2 years. Even though he's been caught in the act several times, he never gets punished, so I figured I'd get away with gut-punching him. Nope. An hour later, I was suspended from school. FML
Today, my dad grounded me for two weeks for profusely swearing at my misbehaving laptop. After some arguing, he actually accepted my half-joking offer to play a game of CoD over it. His condition was that if I lost, my grounding period would double. We played. He kicked my ass. FML
Today, I got grounded for 2 weeks for slapping my brother after he threw a baseball at my head and hit my shin with a bat. He’s in 9th grade and I'm in 8th. He got ice cream to "cheer him up". FML
Today, my dad made a big show of sending me to my room and grounding me for a week. Not because he heard me cursing at my video game, but because I "swear like a little girl" and it embarrassed him in front of his friends. FML
Today, my son, who to my great shame is a typical bully, was suspended for bullying a disabled girl. Her father must have been the biggest, meanest, most tattooed ex-marine I've ever seen. He blamed me for bad parenting, and I actually peed myself a little in fear, which he saw too. FML
Today, a kid from school came to my house. He asked my dad if I was at home, because we were "planning a bit of the old, you know…" and made an obscene gesture. Now I'm grounded for a month, and no matter what I say, my dad won't believe that I've never even spoken to the kid before. FML
Today, I tried to blackmail my dad by threatening to tell mom about the bong and weed he keeps hidden in the garage. Turns out she already knew about it and neither of them give a shit. Now I'm grounded until the new year. FML
Today, I was bitched out by my 17 year-old son's teacher. It seems the idiot teacher made the kids advocate for his own political beliefs in a presentation, and my son ended his speech saying, "And it remains my opinion that our instructor is cramping my motherfucking style." Instant suspension. FML

I agree that you should take away his tech. He can only use the computer to do schoolwork, and only in view of you or his dad. No mobile, no texting, no online or computer games. Give him lots of chores to do around the house. If he's going to volunteer, he can do the Adopt-a-Road style volunteer, not working with vulnerable creatures whom he'd probably hurt. And tell him he's lucky the kid he bullied didn't make him cupcakes.

SPANK HIS ASS! FOR THE LOVE OF GOD! GET A BELT, SMACK HIS ASS! THAT'S WHAT STRAIGHTENS A KID UP!

Sounds to me like you need to be more strict with him, even more so if this is happening more than once and especially if he is 14 and speaking to you like that.

Take his door away. That worked on my brother.

Time to bully his penis

It sounds like he is just trying to make you think that you can't punish him. Also I think it would probably be more effective to get him some anger management counseling.

You should take his door off the hinges!

My dad would make me sit at the table and read a book for a month or so. I was only allowed to get up to use the bathroom or go to bed. Or he'd make me write what I did wrong a couple hundred times. I never made the same mistake twice.

I don't know if I'd do something exactly like that, but maybe something along the lines of making the kid write an essay about the effects of bullying as a way to earn back privileges? Or an essay on the horrible consequences that happened to any number of famous "bullies" (Hitler, Stalin, etc)?

When I was grounded my parents would take my phone. We only kept the computer in the living room. He's gonna find jacking off with no **** is no fun. For entertainment, try putting icy hot or jalapeño juice on the lotion pump.
