It doesn’t matter who we are, we could all use a friend sometimes. The problem is, we may have many acquaintances in our life but friends tend to be few and far between. They are the ones that will stick by our side and when we are having a bad day, they don’t act any differently. In fact, they are there to comfort us and to make us feel better. In most cases, it takes a long time to develop such a friendship but every once in a while, we may have a friendship that comes out of the blue.
That is what a young boy from Minnesota was experiencing in 2017. He was a victim of bullying at the middle school where he attended, and young Zane felt lost as a result of it. His classmates were relentless with the treatment that was focused on him. It started out with verbal teasing but ended up with physical abuse. His mother, Tracy, talked about her son being pushed and punched and they even wrote on him with markers! Although the school was aware of the fact that he was being bullied, they did not do enough to stop it from happening.
When Tracy saw that the school was not doing its job in stopping the teasing, she decided to get the community involved. She reached out for help and after posting information online, somebody stepped up to the plate. It wasn’t what you would think, however, it was a group of bikers that came to their neighborhood and started shouting the boy’s name.
I don’t know about you, but I would be nervous if a group of bikers was outside looking for me, especially if I was already a victim of bullying. Zane opened the door and saw what was happening, and he sheepishly walked over to them. It wasn’t long, however, before he realized that help had finally arrived. Watch more in this video:
