Poor Daughter

ILH---my heart just breaks for your girl....children can be so doggone cruel and as parents there is only SO MUCH we can do!! you are doing the right thing by standing strong by her!!
 
DO you have facebook? If so, search for Jeremiah's Hope. Warning its a page started by the parents of a 21 year old who killeed himself after years of bullying. They have alot of doc with ideas filled with ways to create at safer school free from bullying. so encouraging words for those who are going through it.

I meant to post this yesterday, it showed up on one of the Angel pages I follow.

sending prayers and hope the teacher gets what has happened and will step up as parent and teacher and take charge of the situation.
 
Got a call today from the principle.

Seems that one of the kids that had been teasing her sat next to her in the lunchroom.
She says he didn't say anything but I really wonder because she just blew up and scratched this boy pretty bad.
She is going to have to write a letter of apology; my punishment. Plus no TV this weekend.

We talked and I told her there was a better way to handle this boy sitting next to her. told her she could have gotten up and moved.
She is feeling bad about it. Told her that what she did was wrong.
 
I am sorry for your daughter. Hope the situation improves.

I was bullied as a kid, and it leaves scars. I wore coke bottle glasses, had a funny last name, had a grandma instead of mom and was a bookworm, got good grades and was very nerdy. Might as well have had a target tattooed on my forehead! The ringleader of the bullying was a year older than me and had big brothers to help her do her dirty work, and I was scared of them. I could have been a track star because I ran all the way home from school so many times to avoid them. But one day she started trouble when her pack of friends or brothers weren't around, and I got so mad I forgot to be scared and thrashed her. Grandma actually stopped me, as I was pounding her head on the sidewalk... That was a turning point although my self esteem was still low. We moved not long after that, although not due to that. At the new school, I made it a point to be friends with a couple of girls who were bullied and made fun of. Kids can be so cruel and the parents need to try and make them understand how bad they are making those kids they bully feel.
 
I was bullied as a child also. So I know how she feels being teased and left out of things. I was asked tonight if it made me sad for her. I said no it makes me mad for her.
 
Yes, I luv herfrds, your daughter is a sweet girl and doesn't deserve the bullying. When I was in grade school we moved around a lot, changed schools a lot. Changed schools in the middle of 7th grade. Where we moved to where a lot of Mexicans resided and there was a group of them (10-15) in a clique headed by a white gal and they decided to pick on the newcomer (me). They would see me in town and gang up and push me around, going down the hallways in school, the same thing, tripping me, etc. and this went on for months. I was afraid to leave my house, afraid to go to school. I don't remember if I told my parents or not...one day during recess they cornered me and the leader jumped me, I beat the crap out of her, both of us got suspended from school for a couple of days, but after that you would think they were my best friends. I still remember the fear of going anywhere because the clique was always together in school and out. Being bullied is not fun at all :mad: Hope you guys get this problem resolved. Hope to see ya again in June at the Corgis gone wild picnic!!!!
 
She said the kids are being nicer today but I am concerned if that will last for long.

I can hardly wait for the Corgi picnic. You won't reconize me . :wink:
