There are 3 kids like this in my oldest daughter's 3rd grade class. They have been suspended 3 times already and come back to school just as mean. One of the suspension's was because they pushed a girl repeatedly until she fell and broke her arm! 2 of the little angels have real tattoos, at 9 yrs. They were bullying most of the kids in the class including my daughter. Threatening to punch them in the nose. I told Jessica not to let them treat her that way. Tell them to go ahead and if they did she was going to give back as good as she could. Told her to say it as mean as she could too. Well sure enough one day she had a cookie in her lunch box and the brat said give it to me or i'm going to hit you. She said no and told him to go ahead because her mom said she could hit right back. He threw his hand back to hit her and another boy stepped in front of her and said if you hit her I'm going to beat the crap out of you with her! Those 3 kids have left her alone since then. Going to the teacher and suspending these kids have done nothing. Next suspension and the police will be called to the school. Hope that works. :(
Gee...how can people live like this...bravo to your daughter's little hero...usually all it takes is to stand up to these bullies....
Sheesh! I remember kids like that when I was in school. Without exception, they all spent time in jail :(
My oldest son stutters...when he was a freshman in HS he was harrassed every morning in the cafetria before school started by this one bully...he made fun of my son's speech and even mimicked him...took his book bag or coat and would play keep away...this went on for several months..(never telling us what was happening)...one morning my husband was called to the school...my son had had enough and socked this kid in the nose....the principal was so shocked upon hearing this story from my son and witnesses that he only suspended him for a half day for hitting....but it was well worth that half day suspension because that bully never bothered him again.
While it's very politically incorrect these days, when I a dad, I'm going to teach them the value of a right hand(and a sound mind to control when...and when not to use it).
