Hi
My DD who is 15 has been part of a small group of friends for a long time. A few months ago, a new girl joined. Since then she has made up some stories about DD and has managed to convince the others that DD shouldn't be their friend anymore. As a result, they put some horrible things on FB, and on texts to other kids at school.
My DD was devastated, leading to her seriously cutting herself, and having to take nearly 2 weeks off school before Easter.
The school have been hopeless. They made all the right noises, but then only put one child into inclusion for a day and "spoke" to the others. My daughter has asked for an apology, but the others refuse, and the school refuse to make them, saying it will cause more harm!!
I am furious with the kids, and now with the school. DD has hardly any friends now, and I am worried about her mental health. I don't know what I am supposed to do - just let it go and leave her to it, or try to fight for the justice she deserves. I don't even know how to do this constructively as i end up crying or getting angry.
I realise this isn't the worst situation in the world, but wondered if anyone else has any advice or experience to share?
Thank you.
