Got one that says it isn't?
Look.. To OP.. Teach the kid to be accepting of himself. Too little of that going around. Because it's easier to just point the finger at other kids. So he has a big ass.. He'll probably grow into it. And if he doesn't, and he isn't taught that it's OK.. Well.. Now we start heading down the drug road, or bulimia or lord knows what else.. Winds up like one of these plastic women who are addicted to plastic surgery? Tan mom? Cat Lady? Those.. REALLY creepy looking German twins/brothers (Think one of them, at least, died recently...)
We're all different.. And.. That's OK. He needs to know and understand that.
Some guys, not even overweight ones, get boobs during puberty.
You're also going to deal with people who poke fun at something all your life. Deal with it. He'll probably do it to others as well. Not even attempting to be mean about it.. Guys tend to bust balls. Some, certainly, take things too far.. But, if he doesn't have the skills to deal with it.. Then he winds up being one of these idiots that shoots up a school or something. So, if you're not going to teach him the skills to deal with it, just going to tilt at the windmill of getting others to stop.. Please lock up any guns you might have.
Having some verbal skills to fire back helps, too. In today's world.. Frowned upon. But it's better to be a smart ass than a dumb ass. And if they're really just busting balls.. Firing back actually earns respect. Either way, sitting there and taking it, regardless of whether it's good natured or not, indicates acceptance of it. easy mark. Will make it twice as bad.
He's going to be dealing with people who say things or do things that upset him for the rest of his life. God forbid he goes on the internet. You read through this topic? Or damn near any other one on here? Half the people here preaching peace, love, protect the kid.. Probably are posting in another topic about burning down city hall over vaccine mandates.

What a silly response. Do you really need a peer reviewed study to let you know that putting a beating on the person engaged in unwanted touching will generally solve the problem?
Speaking from personal experience, every fight I’ve ever been in has resolved the issue that motivated the fight. YMMV

Again, violence doesn't solve anything. Fighting doesn't really solve the problem. Sure it may make the person go away, but it doesn't resolve the actual problem. You also may end up in prison. If that's the life you want, lovely for you. However, you won't be a productive member of society. Then again, it doesn't really sound like you are now.

Defending yourself from a battery upon your person will not result in you going to prison.

How could you possibly have come up with such a stupid, nonsensical, and unsupportable conclusion?

Defending yourself? This is a very risky way to go about life. Someone saying something to you does not justify touching them.
I see what kind of person you. Your vocabulary says a great deal. You're rude and insulting. You're fine with going around getting into fights. Says a great deal about a person. This conversation is about an 11 year old child. Your ideas are so out of line with today's society and what happens to children in school.
Just so you guys know, the kid in the OP was not even touched, so whether he should be encouraged to beat the crap out of another kid is kind of moot here.
If anyone has any other tips or suggestions they can also DM me.
