Third Grader Asks Bully Who Spit On Him To Be His Friend
The Michigan student wanted to show that friendship is better than bullying.
Nicolas Neesley, 8, was on the playground at Jennings Elementary School when his friend was being picked on by a fifth grader, Neesley’s mother told ABC News. Nicolas reportedly got involved in the altercation when he asked “if the fight was necessary” before the bully spit at him and called him names.
Even after the fight, Neesley wanted to be the fifth grader’s friend.
“He came home and told his father and I what happened and asked if he should be friends with the kid,” Nicolas’ mother Shamayne Neesley said. “It was bugging Nic that the kid did not want to be friends with him.”
She told her son that he should give it some time before trying to befriend the fifth grader, so he waited until October 5, which is anti-bullying day at school. Students are encouraged to wear to blue to support anti-bullying, but the fifth grader was wearing black that day.
Nicolas decided to write a letter to his school that he hopes would encourage others to not bully.

Many adults, including several here, can learn a valuable lesson. The way I’ve been putting it here for a long time is you don’t fight fire with fire. You fight fire with water. When fire is the problem, the solution is not more fire.
The same is true with hatred, bitterness and acrimony coming from extremists on the Right.
The solution is not hatred, bitterness and acrimony coming from extremists on the Left.
Peace and love are the way, folks.
This ‘love your enemy’ thing is a mindbender, but it is the way to go.

well it’s difficult because it requires a thought process, reflection…and loving one”s enemy is not emotionally gratifying to the injured party…he chose to rise above this hateful behavior and let the guy know he wouldn’t bother to make the effort to stoop that low….good for him! but he also let him know that in his world people treat others how they themselves want to be treated…he got right to the point about that…I hope the mother fraimes the letter…..;) it deserves to be framed

“The wolf will live with the lamb, the leopard will lie down with the goat, the calf and the lion and the yearling together; and a little child will lead them.”

Then the leopard ate the lamb the wolf ate the goat, the lion was hunted and shot by the child and the calf was was the best veal I ever ate. The end.

No,it was while I was junking your mother, btw, she needs a retread, she is gaping and loose now.

Well, since she’s dead, you are one sick mofo. And you even admit it publicly. Chances are necrophilia is the least offensive thing you do.

I was wondering why she was just laying there, ok I am mad now, tell your dad I want the 2 bucks back.
He did offer you but, I was not THAT desperate.
Now, you have my permission to reply, I am sure it will be stunning, in your moronic style. Go ahead, I am waiting. P. S.
Learn to swallow, ur dad can show u how.
