The mother is blaming the school district????
Pathetic.
What I’m saying is she chose to put her kid in that school. If the school is responsible for killing her daughter, what does that say about her choice to send her daughter there? Think a little bit.
She should blame the District. They were acting en loco parentis. (Look it up). As such they were legally, ethically, and morally responsible for the safety and well being of the child in their care. Period.
My son was bullied in high school. Here’s how I handled it. I set up a meeting with the administration and his teachers. I told them what was going on and they admitted to being aware of it. Then they told me about their “zero tolerance” policy about fighting for any reason.
I thanked them for explaining their policy. Then I politely asked them to listen quietly while I explained my policy. I looked at my son and told him that if he was someone tried to lay a hand on him he was to hit them as hard as he could until they stopped. Then he was to immediately find an adult.
I turned back to the staff and told them that if my child was harmed while he was in their care or he was punished for defending himself when they failed to I would sue not only the District but them personally.
I told them I’d have them stripped of their indemnity and leave them bankrupt. I thanked them for their time and said the meeting was over.
I then sent registered letters not only to the principal but everyone who was in the room. At the bottom of the letter I cc’d a prominent local attorney. I didn’t really, just picked the name out of the local Bar Association.
I got a phone call from the principal the day he got my letter. He assured me there would be no need to get the legal system involved. The bullying ceased at school.

some parents don’t have much choice on where there kids are going to school. choice in schools comes from having finances and resources to draw on. you are the one that is pathetic for calling the mother of this kid pathetic. and yes I thought about what you said. I grew up being bullied in school it only stopped when I was in high school because the kids that were bullying me got scared of me. some years were worse then others as far as the bullying went the big difference in how bad the bullying was depended on the adults that monitored what was going on in the schools. the adults could never stop it but they could at least keep the damage done to a minimum. some school districts are belter then others at this monitoring. I think that the mother would do belter if she were to find out witch kid set up the Facebook account and then sue the parents for the slander there child committed.
