Heard from another parent that my 12 year old told some kids to stop making fun of a younger kid. No drama, just did the right thing and walked away. Couldn't be more proud. He's learning what actually matters. This is what we're raising them for.
I bet that made his day when you found out. Did you let him know you heard about it or keep it low key?
The younger kid's parents probably had no idea their son was being helped by a stranger that day. Those moments matter more than we realize.
This is exactly the kind of stuff you hope they pick up without having to drill it into them. You and your wife must be doing something right with how you're raising him.
Makes you realize all those conversations about kindness and doing the right thing are actually sinking in. I'm proud of your son and I don't even know him lol.

That's awesome man. Those moments stick with you. Did he say anything about why he felt like he had to step in or was he just naturally drawn to helping?
