Getting beat up conditions a person to be able to take a punch in a fight (not that I condone violence).
Beating up and getting beat up was part of growing up. Not sure when society got so sensitive about kids being kids, and getting physically disciplined by parents became taboo.
I remember during elementary school, I was this scrawny@$$ kid and wasn't able to fend for myself. So, I made friends with the bigger kids by hooking them up with snacks (sometimes even did their homework) in exchange for physical protection.
