To what extent should I wade in on low level bullying??
DD(10) in Y6 at Primary. She joined a new school in September and a fellow Y6 boy took a bit of a shine to her. At first she politely accepted his many unsolicited gifts and little notes but always said she liked him just as a friend. They are 10! Anyway it carried on so I spoke to the teacher as another child had told her he's been cutting pictures of her out of school news letters (just odd!) and the gifts were getting more frequent and extravagant. The teacher had a word, but then things changed and he started being mean to her. This has continued in peaks and troughs throughout the year and at times I have had a quiet word with the teacher who I believe has spoken to said child and his parents. But today he started on her on the bus back from their secondary school transition day. As you might expect, other kids got drawn in and it resulted in her becoming a bit of a target for ridicule. I want to raise holy hell about this, but DH disagrees as he thinks it will make her more of a target. I kind of see his point but I am so upset that this was her first experience of the bus!!
