From what you say its already at the stage where there is more then 1 bully and at least 3 or 4, so he needs to do something soon.
I suggest like the others to take up martial arts, that itself may be a detterant but if not enough he needs to rough one of them up, this should deter the others onto some other poor victim. Its a case of no pain no gain I am afraid and no more cotton wool for him.

Frankly after the death earleir this month of a 15 year old stabbed to death in school trying to stop a fight, taking matters further like this might be dangerous.I agree that martial arts do give a child self esteem and confidence but I feel that children trying to sort things out for themselves are fraught with dangers.However that being said adults are not always able to understand the desperation that a bully victim feels.
Punky (I wonder where he is?) feels that getting the police involved should be the major step..maybe he's right in view of how many children are now arming themselves with knives.
