Okay, so he'll tell her you shouldn't be eating, that you're not doing enough with your life, you're lazy, you get up late, you should move out. Sometimes she'll come back at him and say, like you're not being very nice. I don't like you all the time. And then he'll say, well, I don't like you very much. Why don't you leave?

I don't think she's mature enough to yet.

Dr. Laura (6:21)

Oh wow. Everybody has an excuse. 17. I graduated from college, went to college. That was it. Didn't go live home. Come on. How mature could I have been then? Yeah, first of all, in my you asked what I would do normally. I never answer that question. However, I think it's relevant here so I will in front of me me and I'm not sure this is correct of me, but I know me in front of me if I heard that I'd be in somebody's face going why are you such a nasty son of a bitch? You've been doing this for 20 years. All of you people stand by and let this happen to everybody. And I think you're all a bunch of weak, spineless jerks to allow him to brutalize everybody because you're all too gutless. I don't know what you're afraid of. He doesn't have $10 million that you're hoping he will leave to you. So I don't know what the motivation is, but I'm not standing by. You're a jerk and you need to leave this house now. Especially if it's my house. If I'm in somebody else's house, I would say that. But I can't get away with it because it's not my house. But I would have taken it on. I always do. I never let anything like that go by in my presence. Never. I'm not built that way. I don't wait years, I'd wait seconds. And I have done that since I was a teeny, tiny, quick story. I'm about 12 and I have this girlfriend. And we're walking outside of school. I remember it vividly, but I don't remember the exact time. And some girls in a girl gang in those days, girl gangs looked tough and had leather jackets and, you know, but it was harmless. Nobody had weapons, nobody got hurt really. It was none of that. It was sort of silly. But girl gang, so they walked around being tough and there was always the leader of the gang and she was a big girl. And I've always been kind of, we'll call it petite. And suddenly, and I don't know what it was about because that the head of the girl little team and my friend must have had a little history because she starts threatening her. An idiot face here. Even at 10 years old, 12 years old, I don't remember. I just remember I was very young. I was scared out of my mind, terrified. But I opened my mouth anyway and I said, don't talk to my friend that way. And this girl gets closer to me, looks down at me. The other girls are sort of closing in. It was like a movie scene. I remember that because I thought maybe I should have. Maybe that wasn't the best thing to do. And she looked down at me and she said, leave this one alone. I like her, she's brave. And they walked away. And I've been that way my whole life. I don't let anybody stand by and get hurt in my presence. So I'm just asking you all to do the same. There be no bullies in school systems. If you all taught your kids, you don't stand by. You don't stand by and take video. Bullies couldn't march on if people didn't close in and say, cut that out. We're reporting you. We're sending this to the police. We're calling 91 1. We're telling your mother now. When I was a kid, that was the worst thing I'm going to tell your mother. Oh, God, I'd rather die. Kill me now. Don't tell my mother. But these days it doesn't matter. Who's your mother? Doesn't matter. So if you brought up all your kids to intervene, how could a bully continue bullying even on the net, all the nice kids close in on that person's address or however, whatever you call it at school. If they all circled and said, no, you can't hurt them. So they keep doing, let's do a class on how you should handle a bully and who was the class directed at the victims or the standby types. Raise your kids not to ever stand by. Got a call from the school. My son was in a fight. He came home and he got in trouble. Zero tolerance to fights. Came home and I said, who started it and who was the problem? This boy A started it on boy B. Okay, and what did A do to B? He hit him, kicked him, pushed him. And then what happened? I hit him. Hey. To stop him. And I said, did you stop him? Did you kind of. And get him down? He goes, oh, yeah. And I said, good. Do you want pizza or Chinese food tonight? Don't worry about getting into trouble on it. My husband went in to deal with the school because he knew if I went in, he'd get in the front page of every newspaper. So he goes, I'll go in and talk to the principal. Yeah. No, you raise your kids to defend other people all the time. Defend other people. No bullies would exist for more than two seconds.
