DD2's bullying update.

9 replies

I've tried to search archives for the thread, but archives isn't working again.

A while ago I posted that my dd2 was being bullied by a boy at her school who has special needs but hasn't been statemented yet.

First of all, thank you all for your advice etc it really did help, and secondly I just thought that I would update.

dd2 and this little boy now get on like a house on fire, they play together quite alot (still under supervision) and dd2's teacher has actually told me that she is a calming influence on X.

AND it is dd2's birthday party next saturday and she has inisted that this little boy comes, I have spoken to his mother today and she is fine about him coming.

I know this sounds weird, but when it comes to the party games etc do I just carry on as normal, or give him more eye contact when I am speaking?

Doesn't it make you wish that us adults could resolves issues so well?

That's really good news Radley. I know many of my dd's tormenters actually just wanted her to p;ay with them or give them some kind of attention but didn't know how to go about it.

I would carry on as normal at the party, but as a mum I'd be extra fascinated to watch his behaviour towards your dd and the other kids without letting him know this is what you're doing.

Have a good one. Smile

I am really excited about it, as the party is a completely different concept to anything I have ever done before and I know of no-one that has done the same.

The video camera will be whirring and the camera clicking lol

It has been mentioned somewhere on mumsnet. It's a be my bear party, where instead of taking home a party bag with cake that doesn't get eaten, they get one of \link{http://www.bemybear.co.uk/clientimages/product_3_poppetsm.jpg\these}. The bears are very very soft and about 40cm long. The kids get to stuff them themselves and then when they go they get a special bag to carry them in and a birth certificate.

Then, instead of giving them a piece of wrapped up cake I'm going to put some fairy cakes on a tray with candle in each, let dd2 blow them out and then the children can have a bun on the way home.

We'll also be playing pin the horn on the unicorn and pass the parcel.

You get them from \link{http://www.bemybear.co.uk/\here} and they really are lovely quality, also, you get a free skin, just incase something happens to go wrong with one of the others.

It sounds good Radley. A bit different.
Best of luck. Do report back.

That's what I though SD, I just wanted something completely different, rather than the usual kids running round causing havoc.

Doing \link{http://i19.ebayimg.com/01/i/06/2b/30/db_1_b.JPG\this} is going to be the biggest challenge.
