it would be interesting if the boy who attacked your daughter has had incidents in the past of such agressive behaviour. Your daughter did the right thing, and you did the right thing..go through normal channels first, via the principal. I know the school system where I live is trying to be very sensitive to bullying.
That being said, if you call the police on the boy...it will have a huge impact on everyone. Detectives or police officers will have to interview your daughter. the boy might be arrested (might)...will your daughter then be picked on for being the girl who had little johnny doe arrested?...what impact would that have? | |

That's true. A lot of kids don't like other kids that tell on other kids. | |

...And if he SPIT on her!?!?!! ...at the least, I might arrange to get his little ass jumped. Not only is that deeply, deeply degrading, but it's a potential health threat these days. Anyways, I would BEG you go to the police with this. Make sure they record the specifics of the incident, which was not merely an everyday schoolyard skirmish, but a friggin' ILLEGAL ASSUALT! If it happened anywhere else, I'm sure you'd have been to the police station already, no? And make sure they record your encounter with school authorities this far. Even if this doesn't contribute to some remedy of the immediate situation, it is deeply important that this be recorded for future reference, in case that kid does this to someone else. NEXT, !@$# the principal. Take this to the superintendant's office. Name names. Embarrass people. Demand some accountability. Yeah -- make yourself a pain in the butt. And you may not have to get a lawyer, but by all means THREATEN it. Lastly, don't say a word to the kid or his mom. You owe her nothing... and she probably is too stupid to recieve it well anyway. She'd consider you to be harrassing her and her kid. Let her come to you. And only chat with her and the kid in the presence of a third party (a school official). All this may be a slight overreaction. But the squeaky wheel gets the grease. The only thing he forgot to mention was talk to TV stations, as well, if you get absolutely no satisfaction from the school system. TV stations generally love to take their story cues from newspapers and love to have these kinds of human interest-conflict exclusives that papers take too long to produce. Just a thought. | |

Just my opinion. I hope she's ok. Poor little thing. Great advice. I completely agree. Bullying must be stopped. It's a horrible thing for a kid to go through. | |

I am so sorry to hear this. I hope that kid learns his lesson. And I hope your daughter is okay. She should never have to put up with this in school. All the best. | |

I had a similar incident that happened to me in the 3rd grade. This boy Steven did a side shove, shoving me into the wall as we were walking down the hall getting ready to get on the school bus. My mama contacted our teacher, and the teacher just had a talk with him....a slap on the wrist basically. That was all I needed though, because I didn't feel it was that serious enough to involve the cops or any higher authority other than the teacher. He didn't bother me anymore after that. We were 9 yrs. old at the time, so getting the cops involved with 9 yr. olds would've been too much,imo. I think your situation is a little bit different because the kids are older and the offense is more serious than shoving. looking for you in the woods tonight Switch FC SW-2874-2863-4789 (Rum&Coke) | |

Needs what good? A violent reaction? Just like the one he did with her daughter? | |

Personally, I would call the fucking Police, have them scare the kid, and his parents.
I feel much compassion for your daughter. ^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^

I didn't say you were, but your response does imply that you feel that reacting in a violent way is acceptable, even needed in this case. But you did ask me "why not?" so here is why I believe that reacting violently is absolutely ridiculous. To hit a child for improper behaviour simply teaches the child that it's ok to hit when someone around him does what he feels is improper behaviour. So, responding in a physical manner just shows him that he responded in the appropriate way with the person he hit, but he's in trouble for doing it?? How confusing for a child. | |

I'm sorry that your daughter had to endure something like that....schoolyard bullying is unfortunately a fact of life, but that was an outright assault. You should call the police and talk to a lawyer to see what your options are if the school or school system doesn't respond appropriately, which in this case would be a suspension....
...whats really wrong with this is that the kids mother was telling the child to lie...which compounds his already anti-social behavior and shows that to her, "mommy's little angel" does no wrong....that there are no repercussions for those kinds of actions for junior....I can almost bet that if she had to go to a conference to explain his actions, she would undoubtedly blame your daughter for what happened.....she'll trot out her volunteer work for the school...blah blah blah....all in an effort to shield the little beast from the punishments he so richly deserves.... I hope everything works out...and that your daughter feels better... He was like a cock who thought the sun had risen to hear him crow.
