In this article it explains Alexander's battle. He fought many battles, many that were obvious and others that didn't seem that he had a chance on winning.
"How would you handled if your kid came home crying, when he got beat up by bullies??"
"Mommy, Daddy!!! I got beat up by those bullies again, WAAAAAAA!" How would you feel if your kid was being bullied? Will you send your child to fight? I wouldn't. You can talk to the bullies so they can stop. Talk to their parents to ground them or just tell them not to beat up my child again.Violence if they did it over three times.
First of all, if they beated up my child I would talk to them. I would tell the group of kids to stop beating up a little kid, ask them "How would you feel if you were being bullied". In the story Richards mother told Richard to go and get the groceries the first and the second time, but she didn't realize that Richard is too small to defend himself and fight.I would never let my child go to something that he is afraid and getting scared like a little chicken.
In addition, if group of kids beated up my child for the second time I would talk to their parents. If they don't listen to me they must listen to their parents. Tell them to ground their child or something to make them stop bulling my child. If my kid was bulling a little kid I would ground him bad. In the story the gang of boys were teens , Richard was only ten or eleven, he was just exited that he was going to the grocery store. Richards mom didn't even care.
Lastly, I would use force to the gang of boys. If they beated up my child for their third time, thats were it crosses the line, if they don't understand English they might understand some fist. If their parents can't teach them a lesson I will, they need to feel how it feels to being bullied, after that they wont even hurt a fly. In the story Richard's mom handed Richard a broom stick and told him to go and fight, i would never do that, i would get the stick and teach them some manners.
In conclusion being bullied is bad. If your child is being bullied act don't stand there acting as you a good parent. Never use violence, but when it is needed you have too. Just talk to the kids if that wont work talk to their parents and if that wont work then its time for some violence, they need to feel what my child was facing, so that they wont do it again. Would you go up to that level of Violence?

Four questions on "The night I won the Right to the Streets Of Memphis"
Question 1
How is Richard similar to you?
Answer 1
There are many ways how I am similar to Richard when i was a little kid, like him. First of all if my mom told me to go and fight for myself i would be scared. In the story, Richard was really scared and suprised because his mom never told him to fight, like if my mom told me to fight I would be suprised too because she never told me to fight. Secondly Richard has a temper when he is mad, like me. When Richard was walking to the gang he was angry, he went on a rampage and was swinging the stick to the boys, he couldn't control it. I remember when i was in fifth grade and i was being bullied by a sixth grader every day,one day he was bugging me and hitting me, made me cry, my temper came and i had to fight him although i got beat up. So me and Richard are similar in being scared and our temper.
Question 2
What was the turing point in the story "The night I won the Right to the Streets of Memphis"?
Answer 2
The turning point in the story "The Night I won the Right to the Street of Memphis" is when Richard's mother gave Richard the stick. First of all when Richard's mom gave richard the stick, Richard was scared and confused. He was scared because he thought he had to fight with the gang, he was scared that his mom told him to fight. He begged his mom to go tomorrow she wouldn't let him because he was scared to some bullies and begging to stay . Secondly Richard was confused he didn't know what to do with the stick. He could either fight or flight. He could go down to the gang and fight or he could go downstairs to the gang and flight or run away from the situation. Thats why the turning point of the story is when, Richard's mom gave him the stick.
Question 3
Why did Richard's mom didn't go outside to talk to the gang her self instead of sending Richard when she knows that he is going to get beat up?
Answer 3
Richard's mom did not go outside to the gang of boys and tell them to stop beating Richard up because she wanted Richard to become a man. First of all she wanted Richard to stand up for himself. Richard got beat up two times and she wanted him to stand up for himself. Imagine Richard five years later, he is getting beat up by ten year olds, she didn't want Richard to become like that. Secondly she wanted him to over come his fears to bigger kids. She wanted Richard to be treated good, he so scared the first time the gang beated them up "They t-t-t-ook the m-money", his mom didn't like that to be scared like a chicken. Thats why Richard's mom didn't go outside to go and talk to the gang.
Question 4
What would happen if Richard had a father living with him?
Answer 4
If Richard had a father in this situation, this story would be different. First of all if Richard had a father living with him i think that the father would go outside and talk to the gang of boys, i know my dad would of done that if i were getting beat up by bullies.Secondly if they didnt listen i think that his father would act such as going to their parents and talk to them about their kids hitting Richard, if they cant stop from a grown up they will might listen to their parents. Lastly i think that he would of got angry if they beated Richard for the third time and went outside and use violence.Thats what would of happen if Richard had a father living with him.
