I did the same thing years ago, didn't feel bad about it for a minute.

I did the same thing years ago, didn't feel bad about it for a minute.

I didn't pay him, but I did send my at-the-time 17 y.o. to take care of a neighborhood kid that was bullying my at-the-time 10 y.o. daughter. He was more than happy to stick up for lil' sis. She hasn't been bothered since.
