I have absolutely no idea what to say.... On one hand, I'm glad the kid stood up for himself. On the other, he could have paralyzed that other kid for life, and I don't think that should be turned into a heroic thing. The concept of refusing to be bullied, yeah. Not picking someone up and dropping him on his head. He should probably be praised and scolded.
If he'd just tackled the kid and beat the snot out of him, that'd be fine, I wouldn't have a problem. If he'd picked the kid up and thrown him down, great. But this could have gone badly. I guess you're right, you praise him and make sure he knows not to ever use that move again.

That is great. He was calm, he didn't want to fight, he waited until the other kid hit him.

I'm just not comfortable punishing self defense, provided it's a proportionate response.
