It wasn't just one kid doing the bulling, but a gang of them waiting outside his house to beat him up. He contacted the school councilor who basically did nothing. <br /><br />Two of my girls were bullied as well and instead of the 'bully' getting any kind of correction, he got reward and special privileges (like working with the K class--thinking it would 'soften' him). It didn't help, he just got better at hiding who he bullied and picked on kids who didn't speak up for themselves. <br /><br />I home school now! :-)<br /><br />A-Z Blog Hop Challenge<br />http://www.shellygoodmanwright.com/apps/blog/show/25311404-believe-in-you swright011699https://www.blogger.com/profile/06781661416963365289noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-913208647313958918.post-7614955042708009202013-04-02T15:44:15.324-04:002013-04-02T15:44:15.324-04:00Deb hi.

But, to tell the truth, there is only one thing you need to know as a parent with regards to your child being victimized: Both boys and girls grow up in the company of women, well mostly anyway. A girl's position in the society of women is established very early on, boys however will, during puberty, need to establish themselves in the society of men. The acceptance of boys during this period (by their peers) and the treatment they undergo at this critical time, will form the foundation of their self immage for the rest of their lives. You are either accepted or you are not. It's as simple as that. Children are simple creatures, it's adults that are complicated.<br />If your child is being bullied and you really care about their future, as you should, don't say to them " Oh stop being such a wimp, fight back." Get your act together and sort it out, one way or another, even if it means changing schools.<br />Enough from me, blessings and salutations from South Africa, Geoff.<br /> Geoff Maritzhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15182608110318394094noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-913208647313958918.post-57891834711477657072013-04-02T15:08:58.031-04:002013-04-02T15:08:58.031-04:00Makes me cringe thinking about bullying.

Poor kiddos in school these days- they have to worry about being bullied on the internet as well as the classroom. <br /><br />(Stopping by from the A to Z Challenge)Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-913208647313958918.post-9109462930435886292013-04-02T09:26:41.013-04:002013-04-02T09:26:41.013-04:00I was a victim in both school and college, and it ...I was a victim in both school and college, and it wasn't pleasant.

I think if I had been one of those kids who had a parent that did not care, it would have hurt my feelings more. I remember being 20 years old and still being hurt by things that people said to me as a kid. It takes time, but I think it things are better now because people are aware this happens. Back in the late 80's and early 90's administrators just wanted to sweep this stuff under the carpet.Sweetbearieshttp://sweetbeariesart.comnoreply@blogger.com
