I need to know....

[Pseudo]

I've told my lad that if he has to get physical in order to defend himself, there's zero punishment coming from me.

I've told my own lad that if he belts another kid, he will cop a punishment from me, no matter what the circumstance. So if you ever get into a scrape with another kid, think what's going to hurt less - the punishment I give you, or the walloping you get if you don't defend yourself.

In reality if I deemed the situation to be self defence then my punishment would be quite mild, but he's not to know that...

Anyone had to deal with a child getting bullied at school? And if so, how did you handle it, what advice what you give for dealing with it?

What, and make the bully watch? Tough love if ever I've heard it.

Having a debate with someone re Jobkeeper

I’ll use round figures for ease.

If an employee normally works 40 hours for $1500, how many hours is he currently expected to work for the $750?

As many as his employer asks upto 40.

Here is my experience, having dealt a bit with the issue a few years ago.

Daughter was having some issues, about year 9 - so 13/14y/o girls.

We took it up with the school, and they dealt with it, quickly and it was all resolved. We put faith in the school, and I would recommend that as your first course of action.

Even though they’d be getting half money?

My understanding is 20 hours and then any more hours is paid by the employer from his pocket. It was always a subsidy type payment.
I know of some companies that cutback the hours to the equivalent of 750/week

[Wedgie]

"While your employer may be able to reduce the hours you work, they can't reduce your rate of pay while expecting you to work your usual hours."

"Employers can’t pay their employees less than the JobKeeper payment per fortnight and keep the difference, or just pay the employee the amount of the JobKeeper payment if the employee is entitled to more."

[Brodlach]

So by that if the employer only wants to pay $750 (Jobkeeper) the employee only does 20 hours?

That’s what I would have thought it would be

That's the way I read it.
Who knows for sure though, the whole thing is a hot mess.

My understanding is that’s correct

My wife's 7 year old grand-daughter is at a school in the inner south. Her mother is Japanese. She hangs about with a girl of European ancestry and a Sri Lankan Muslim girl. Recently, a boy of similar age strode up to the Sri Lankan child and said, " I don't like you. I don't like the colour of your skin!" GD says, "If you don't apologise by the time I count to 4 I'll go straight to the teacher."

He doesn't. She does. School takes action. GD lauded as school heroine.
Sri Lankan girl's mother contacts GD's Dad to thank him and his daughter for her action.

Following up on this, thanks for that Wedgie, I went to Pirate Life brewery this afternoon and got a carton for my brother and a 4 pack for myself. Looked like they still had plenty of the Port Adelaide Lager left.
