"bully"

Son has been telling me ( it took several sittings at different times and places, and that upon probing on my part ) about this boy in school who likes to pick on him. That boy has kicked son before intentionally, so son says. I let the matter drop and monitor to see if anything else happens.
One day, son told me that he has offered a peace offering to that boy. Son says that boy has been eyeing son's fried chicken during break time so son decides to share with him . Of course my main concern was whether son has enough to eat ...son has a voracious appetitie , you see. Son says it is okay and today, he even defended the "bully" saying that the latter is helping him to finish his food faster? Should I feel proud that son is solving his own problem in a peaceful manne? A future UN peace official in the making?

Anyway, this afternoon, the "bully" was standing next to my son who pointed him out to me . I took a look at him and asked him whether he was too poor to bring his own food to school or what. He didn't answer me . Then I nearly wanted to ask him why he kicked my boy, but zipped my lips at the last minute. Why? That "bully" had one bandaged toe on his right foot. Someone could have taught him a lesson ?
