The other child is 5. He does not know how to express himself. There is nothing another child can do other than stand strong and not be overwhelmed. The mother will talk to the administration.
I actually think bullying is alot less widespread that it was and gets better in each successive generation.
I can think back to the 80s and 90s. Much worse
Ask your parents what bullies did in the 60s.
And your grandparents in the 30s?
There is no comparison. Each generation back was so much worse.
And I had some bullied kids.

I think that desensitized is actually the way to go. Don't let the child be a victim and save them. Build up their resilience, teach them how it feels to be bullied and have them learn from it.
Such great life experience if it comes with good support.

Assuming that even though you might have made some calls, the bully will still demand it, your son should say, as calmly as possible, I'm so sorry but I don't bring this to camp.
If the bully keeps at it, he should say it again, then say, I've already given you an answer. If you don't stop I will tell the counselor/head counselor. He should keep his physical distance.
Hatzlacha!
