Stupid, Little Twerp!
Ethan came home from school today a bit grumpy. He asked what was for dinner and when I said soup (which I only said as a joke because I know he hates it), he burst into tears. After a bit, I got the whole story.
Ethan: I was sent to the principle’s office today.
Me: Did you get in trouble or something?
Ethan: No. I wasn’t in trouble.
Me: Then why did you go?
Ethan: I got kicked and kicked in the leg until it really hurt and then [the boy] punched me in the stomach a bunch. We both got sent to the office, but only he got in trouble.
Me: Are you okay?
Ethan: Yep.
Me: Did you hit him back?
Ethan: Nope.
Me: Good boy.
Some stupid little twerp tried to beat up my baby today. Too bad grown ups can’t smack other people’s children around.
Because, hey, if you could … well, that boy’d be wishing he had been attacked by a fury of wild badgers instead of by you.
Nothing like a mother’s anger to really make you rethink some actions, huh?

But you can make an appearance and have Ethan point him out. You can then give him “THE LOOK”. It’s a powerful message that says, Hey! I’m the mother bear, you mess with my kid. You mess with me! Ask me how I know? Hug Ethan for me, Gramma bear (the Intemidator)
