And now because of the internet they can form subcultures, and not just be consigned to being in a gang of three or four hanging out in the school library, never taking their jackets off even on the hottest days.
They can actually interact and create groups without having to actually socialise with anyone irl.
I know a great website for that
dubstepforum?

The truth is very difficult for most people. We all struggle with varying degrees of success in apprehending reality.
As an actual father amongst you derelict cretins, heed my advice, I wouldn't tell the kid don't do that or don't wear that (though with my 9yo, this is what I say pretty much all day, everyday), but I would put them in situations where reality would crush their bubble of delusion, and they'd be left bare to face reality.
Direct action, or verbal instruction is almost useless in teaching/raising children. You have to create scenarios, environments, conditions, for lessons to be learned, character to be built.
British parents love to just tell kids stuff from their armchair and expect them to be perfect... the whole attitude rests on the parent being the authority and the children being compliant, unquestioning subjects.
Haven't seen it work well yet...

In regards to the Brony kid from the above clip…
They are forgetting the second stage of Brony ownership…
which is also key in handling all bullying in general…
and that's the taste combat phase….
If you wanna like a thing - You better be prepared to combat around it.
That should be the new pokemon - bulli combat…
It starts with whatever the cute little thing is…
and evolves into the hulking godlike version of it…
I'm pretty sure the Brony kids would be owning a the end of that….
