To the OP, your son did the right thing. I know the school simply sees it as a 'fight and your son punched so and so', but you know what it's never as black and white as that. I'm not sure what your reaction to the suspension was, but what l would have done is gone down to that school, demand a meeting with the principal, and proceed to reem him/her out and ask why they did nothing. I'm willing to bet that kid who picked on your son will think twice before starting a fight with him again. As someone who was smaller in school and had his fair share of getting picked on, good on your boy for sticking up for himself. l got jumped by one guy in elementary, kicked his ass when he tried to bully me, and he never touched me again.
