I had an unusual lesson from my parents regarding bullies. They told me, that if they found out that the I didn't even try defending myself from bullies and found out, I'd still get whooped at home. It seems kinda cruel at surface level. But when the time ultimately came, dam straight I fought back tooth and nail. And no, they were not abusive in any way. Even reflecting back as an almost 40yr old adult. They were both prison guards/swat people. So they had a very different perspective of bullying I guess.
