I got bullied mercilessly and spent plenty of time in the principal's office. I've stood up in class plenty of times and yelled at people bullying me. Every time, though, the teachers took over and handled the situation. Sometimes the teachers didn't do as much as I thought they should, but at least they did SOMETHING. You know, sometimes that's all it takes to get these assholes to leave a kid alone.

I hope they let Abel off and transfer him to the LGBT friendly school mentioned in the article.
