There is a sophomore boy at school who no one likes. I've tried to be friendly with him, but he's taken advantage of the kindness I've tried to show him. He harasses me. Verbal stuff I can take, but he harasses me physically in the locker room. Not only this, but he harasses others at school. He shows extreme disrespect to teachers.
I feel bad for the kid, it seems like he needs attention.
Anywhoo, I've finally been around to the SRO's office, and filed a report against this kid. I don't care what he says to me, but I can't take that he feels that he can touch me however he pleases while we're changing.
Please help me pray that this kid will grow up. I also hate conflict very much, which is why I haven't reported him before. I'm afraid that this is going to snowball into a huge deal. I don't want the kid to get expelled or something (not by my hands, anyway,) I just wish he'd get the message that he can't act this way.
Please join me in praying for him. This is extremely difficult for me to do, as I don't like him much, but I'm trying.

Lord have mercy. I've had similar experiences myself back in junior high school (and to an extent high school). Hang in there, bro.

Lord Jesus Christ, Son of God, have mercy on me, the sinner.  God is always coming to you in the Sacrament of the Present Moment. Meet and receive Him there with gratitude in that sacrament

Thank you very much. I feel a bit silly, though. I'm significantly bigger than this kid, and a bit more mature. I don't want to just hit him, though I'll be carrying a can of pepper spray in my pocket to school until this blows over.

Even if it is in genuine self defence schools rarely are ok with it. Someone could be choking you and you hitting back could get you sent to juvenile detention around here (I know someone this actually happened to).

If you give up pride of place for yourself to God, you will find your soul and eternity.. if you insist on putting yourself before God you will loose yourself eternally.

Pepper spray is considered a weapon, after all.

2 Cor. 12:9 And He said to me, “My grace is sufficient for you, for My strength is made perfect in weakness.” Therefore most gladly I will rather boast in my infirmities, that the power of Christ may rest upon me.
