I actually meant publically talking to each other on whichever social media site is used by them & their peers.

There is one thing that all bullies need and when they get it, they 99% of time stop bullying, and that is a good crack round the back of the head or shoved in a boxing wrong with someone half their size that knows what they are doing.
Embarrass a bully, or physically bully/dominate the bully and they tend to stop being a bully, but let them get away with it by just "talking to them" and telling them "how much you emotionally hurt" the other person is going to do nothing but tell them "go ahead, bully them more because we are going to jack about it".
Apparently now (based of what happened with my nieces) if a child physically assault's another child in school, nothing happens to that child until it has happened 3 times in multiple stages, each stage requires a complaint, hospital visit, police report, psychological impact study, emotional impact statements etc etc, meanwhile the little bully carries on assaulting kids laughing at the teachers knowing they are going to do nothing.
In the case of my nieces and my cousins kid, it took my brother and his wife, my cousin and his fiancee as well as my sister and her husband to threaten to sue the school and remove their kids from the school, if they did nothing about the assault on the kids, as well as report it to the local and national papers, eventually the school expelled the kid (7 years old) and he was sent to a "Special Needs" school, where he has since physically attacked a teacher, assaulted 2 kids badly enough for them to require hospital stays, and the school cannot expel him because this is the 4th school he has been to due to being expelled everywhere else due to physical violence, at the age of 7!!
I tell you now, that kid will end up locked up before they are 10 because no one will do what is needed, a good smack on the hand each time they hit someone, it's only way kids like that learn!
Stop pandering to the left wing lunatics and teach kids there are consequences to their actions more than just a talking to and they will stop, it's one of the reasons bullying barely happened when I was in school.

The argument against this is that telling children that violence is wrong & never the answer & then using violence against them is hypocritical & sends out the wrong message. Some can learn to behave with the use of non violent methods.
On the other hand, when all other efforts have been exhausted, a beating may be the only option left with some of them.
I know a teacher, exasperated with one child and unable to do anything official of use to get him to behave, took him into a corner and unofficially threatened him with an adult type beating. It worked.
