After My Daughter Was Bullied, I Went on a Rampage

When I found out that my daughter, a first-year high school student, was being bullied, rage surged through me. It's hard to imagine what a group of sixteen- and seventeen-year-olds could do. Slapping someone, burning their chest with cigarettes, standing on someone's head and making them bark like a dog on the ground. I'll pay them back a hundred, a thousand times over, and make them understand despair and fear. I want everyone to know that my daughter is my one vulnerability, and anyone who touches her will die, no matter who you are or what kind of status you have! In this moment, I am everything my daughter can rely on, the source of all her courage, and an avenging messenger in the darkness.
