Probably not really an AIBU but more of a rant.
Why is it that schools are rubbish at dealing with bullies. I see it time and time again on Facebook that yet another bully is getting away with their behaviour. My DS age 10 has put up with being targeted verbally by one boy for 2 years but nothing seems to be getting better. Other parents don't always speak up so that doesn't help our case but it feels as if DS is not listened to and that the other boy is not punished, in fact sometimes favoured. I used to find myself wishing he had punched DS in the face rather than just belittling him every day as at least they would deal with violence instead he is sly and on the 1 occasion DS lashed out he was punished! Just feel there is nothing more I can say or do.
AIBU to think that schools should take emotional bullying just as seriously?!
