OP shouldn't have moved back in with his mom. She betrayed him, chose to be a simp instead of a mother. I don't see that relationship ever being the same.
Usually, I gave those people a reality check by saying, "You think your boss is gonna reward your bravery? sucking his dick isn't gonna protect you". They can't stand the idea not all of us are for sale or willing to go along with the status quoe 😠.
Don't want bullied...STAND UP FOR YOURSELF instead of being weak , win or lose fight back even if you gotta play dirty...life is not a damned Disney movie..yeah it may suck its that way...but it IS that way...raise a soft kid , get a bullied kid...I fought for respect win or lose so I wasn't bullied...and id step in if a kid at least tried fighting back...if one wouldn't , then I had no respect for the bully or the bullied
@jackspring7709 The people who called OP a snitch and to that one aunt who sided with OPs mom (and then switched her tune when she was shown facts) are the worse people to be around. The "Keep in the Family" BS is literally the same thing Harris did to deflect any problem about his kid for years, and look where that got him
He's living through his son. Pushing that football crap hoping his son will make it big and he can make a claim to it. You see it in a LOT of sports parents. Fed lies that he is better than everyone else, it leads to being a bully.
I suspect that part of why the school kept "archiving" the repeated bullying complaints was because the OP's step brother was valuable to the school as one of their best football players. Maybe there should be a class action lawsuit against the school.
That and probably because stepbros dad has money to keep people quiet. It was enough for a whole year until OP showed proof to the principal. And it's no wonder word spread to other high schools. Especially with other victims of the stepbros bullying.
The fact that they keep saying "You should of told your family" when OP ALREADY DID AND THEY DIDN'T LISTEN will always irk me and will make me rage when people try that BS.
If OP can't stand up for himself ( I dont care if he does it dirty , sneak attack with a weapon of some kind , or being smarter or whatever to take him down or at least get him off his back )...I have no sympathy for him because it will just continue for his entire life...his mother raised him disgustingly weak and if you have no self-respect no one will or should respect you...and yes damnit sometimes you MUST answer violence with violence...pretended you don't is Disney movie idealistic crap that got this kid into this in the first place...win or lose stand up for yourself or forever lay down and get walked over...no sympathy for outright weakness
I had a similar story on my middle-school days. I move to a new house and a new school when I was in the second year of middle-school. The fact that I was new and half asian in a european country was enough for me to get bullied by my whole class, except two or three students. Even my english teacher and my music teacher were harassing me. On the student side, one of the main head of this wole mess was a classmate, a year younger than the entire class, and with some friends, and they kept bullying me, sometimes physically. But everything stopped when they learn that I was stronger than the whole class, even if they attacked me all together (I'm still impressed by myself but they really did that, this is why I know it's true). Things started to settle down after sometimes but then came my younger brother, who had the same problems has me, and with the same teachers, and even more bullies (mines and some new ones, adults and students. When he got hit, adults that promised to protecting him told him it was his fault cause he was always in trouble). During this whole time, we tried differents things, like complaining to the principal and other stuff. But each complaints magically vanished every single times. The problem was that the parent of the main trouble-maker were very rich, and gave a lot of money to the school, and my father has his hands tied cause they were also some of the sponsors of his job company or something, and he was the only one that brings money at our house. Hopefully, everythings settle down cause the bullies became more mature and because they understood that they couldn't stand up against me and my gang, a group of new friends that were really supportive, emotionnaly and physically, and I will never be able to thanks them enough for what they did. (One time, my brother got beaten in such a bad way that he could have died if he didn't protect his neck and if I didn't stood up for him with my friends against them, a litteral clash of clans, but they know me enough so I didn't need to raise a fist. That why I didn't end in trouble, cause with this fu**ing anti-violence policy of this fu*ing school, I would have been expelled from school as much as them, if more, and they just got expelled for 2 days after what they did. But after they came back, they laid low in front of me and my friends. The bad thing is that I got graduated at the end of the year, and my brother ended up in trouble again, even if my father did everything he could this time.)
Eactly...there are times you MUST fight back and earn some respect...my family moved a lot so always being the new kid I fought ( won some , lost some )..but I earned my respect and wasn't bullied..raising your kids like life's a Disney movie is no favor to them
I was on board until the box of letters came up from his dad. That makes no sense. Why would his dad have a box of letters for him, to be given to him on his 18th birthday? His dad died in a car accident. It's not like he was sick and expected to die, it was something unexpected.
@@southernflight5078I think that was kind of the point. Like, maybe the dad didn't tell his wife or OP about the bullying, he wrote those letters down in therapy to heal, and he was saving them to view his progress(?) Even without the letters, the grandma coming in to OPs defense about standing up for yourself will always be legendary. OPs mom knew to STFU
Yes OP's Dad died in a car accident. OP didn't mention what his Dad's career was. If the work was dangerous, Dad could've originally wrote those letters in case something went wrong at work.
The OP did NOTHING wrong, and of course Jonathan took it too far, because that is how entitled they think they are! "Jonathan" was always going to get caught, and the marriage was always going to be in trouble because the mother went along with the bullying. The reality is that "Jonathan" was getting the justice he always was going to get, only it happened when it blatantly should have for all like him: in high school. Also, "Harris' " demand was NEVER going to work.. because any computer geek could prove the video footage was genuine, so cops and school administrators would surely have. The domino effect that happened would still have happened, and the entire "should have handled it in the family" is the same garbage that corrupt organizations like the RCC use to silence victims. Lastly, hearing Jonathan's mother ("Karen") flesh out more of the story just insures that "Harris" needs the "ruined future" just like his son does! "Harris" literally taught his son to be a misogynistic waste of life, and proves that he himself should be in prison. "Jonathan" starting to learn why what he did was wrong is absolutely a miracle, as was "Harris" being exposed in court and losing custody. "Harris" doesn't need to be a free person.. let alone allowed to marry and have any contact with children.
For OP I wouldn’t move back in with my mother she failed him she was willing to put her own son in a verbally mentally and sometimes physically abusive situation over a man that she want to cuddle up with. She is the most self-centered person in this story and for the aunt Sarah, whatever I would never forgive her. She tried to use a dead person to shame and mentally and emotionally abuse him too. Never forgive her. I would not even eat her cookie. I would stay with my grandmother. She really truly support you financially, emotionally mentally and physically protecting you. I’m surprised Harris didn’t get a lawsuit for all the bad mouthing threats that he did and he probably was abusing Jonathan too and Jonathan mother she fail her son major I mean, yeah she didn’t have the financial support to get him but you know your son have problems. He probably is mentally unstable. I will go at the end of this earth to get my son right and get him to help. He really needs. The other family members will not freaking talk to them at all when you date and have another family and get married don’t invite none of these people, but your grandmother was willing to be physically mentally and emotionally abused and they wanted to shut up about it. The guy was probably paying them off especially aunt Sarah and I took the money. I’m sorry but she gave it to you. I will take it. Save it up for house payments or something, I’ll take the money but good for you. Your father spirit was with you. He did more than your mother did and that’s crazy.
I feel like it's too late for that. Johnathan has been bullying kids for years, with no real consequences other than just starting anew at a different school. I doubt Harris actually told him to stop bullying, which may have emboldened Johnathan even more. I would be surprised if he threatens to hurt or even kill OP for ruining his life, with Harris probably advocating his son to "Stand up for himself" and "Teach him a lesson".
The absolute worst villain in this story was NOT the bully. It was his father. The extreme level of codependency he showed constantly trying to cover it up instead of getting his son psychological help and forcing him to deal with his behavior was a crime in itself and if he had truly loved his own son he never would have behaved this way. And he was a bully of sorts himself. Threatening to divorce his wife over this incident was a form of blackmail and not physical bullying where there is a threat or danger of physical harm or physical pain or loss of bodily autonomy or damage to a person's possessions it was a form of PSYCHOLOGICAL bullying.
His mother was just as much at fault for raising such a soft , weak son...life's not a Disney movie and there are times you must fight back...no love of bullies but no sympathy for outright weakness
@@ric2097The mother is at fault for enabling the stepbros bullying and prioritizing her marriage over her child's well-being. So bold of you to claim she raised a weak son as if that was the problem. The son did fight back. He stood for himself, and when askign the "adults" for help didn't work, he decided to record evidence of bullying and went to the principal, which led other kids stepping up. The real "weak" one here is OPs mom.
Mom is co-dependent. She will throw anyone, and everyone, under a bus to have a companion. My mom and dad are both that way. I haven't dealt with them in decades because they are so toxic and narcistic. Luckily, they are in the oldest generation, and I'm pretty old now with all grey/white hair, so they won't have any chance to bother anyone much longer.
@@WeebArt-rv8yn the writing. 1. the ending has that "and this is what I learned through this experience" which isn't how normal people write. 2. His dad dies in a completely unexpected accident... yet wrote letters to be delivered when his son turns 18? It's not like he had a terminal disease or anything. But okay sure, maybe it would have been a nice moment for the dad to give his son those letters when he becomes a man. But they also coincidentally happen to be about the very situation he's currently in? Encouraging his son to stand up to bullies, while his son is in a crisis about standing up to bullies? 3. Wraps up too neatly, with all the plot threads wrapping up in a very satisfactory way to the reader.
@@WeebArt-rv8yn with the first point, I see it all the time. That "I learned to trust my judgement" always shows up, even in stories that have nothing to do with that. Another clear giveaway is with stories involving older people, and they include a wife/husband even though including them has nothing to do with the plot.
So many men think being a “real” man or an “alpha” is money, power(perceived or even real), brute strength etc! A REAL MAN/ALPHA must have INTEGRITY, MORALS, PRINCIPLES, COURAGE(do what is right, not easy) HONOR, is SELFLESS & are LEADERS(directly & indirectly)! You can always change but do it before it’s too late & you harm others to include yourself! I’d like to say it’s never too late to change, but that’s simply not true.
What the hell is wrong with the aunt? That 🐝👁✝🧲l-l is trying to minimize BULLYING which is a form of ABUSE and at certain levels can even be a CRIME as "teenage drama". I almost H8 her even more than the OP's step brother because at her age she should be wise enough to know better.
OP shouldn't have moved back in with his mom. She betrayed him, chose to be a simp instead of a mother. I don't see that relationship ever being the same.
"I don't see that relationship ever being the same." That's literally what the OP said himself
At least the mom put herself in therapy for herself and then family therapy for her and OP.
That bully needed that reality check
OP came as a hero for so many people around him, we need more people like OP in our society
Hopefully his "fans" can back him up because he just lost his family.
we need to be like OP ourselves
Ops mom failed him, and it took a mountain of evidence and the fact that her husband was showing his true colors for her to believe her bio kid
You know why people side with the bullies? Better to be the bully than BE bullied.
People freaking suck.
Usually, I gave those people a reality check by saying, "You think your boss is gonna reward your bravery? sucking his dick isn't gonna protect you". They can't stand the idea not all of us are for sale or willing to go along with the status quoe 😠.

LOL to OP fixing things with his mom. Let's wait for her next marriage.
Wonder what she'll ask op to take blame for to save her marriage.
I would have NEVER forgiven the mother she is as despicable as the others
OPs dad must be turning in his grave to see what OP has to go through because his wife couldn't step up. Makes me wonder how the grandmother sees her.
Well done young man,you have a bright future ahead of you 💪❤
You tried it in the family. They ignored you. You did what you needed to.
