Pre-Teen Bullying, Tears and Swearing

Not sure if there is a pre-teen forum but I am really struggling with my 12yo DD.
Lots of attitude, swearing, tears. Had a call from school today to say that DD had sent an abusive IM to another class member and she may get suspended! No previous history of bullying or being bullied. I spoke with her about it and she started swearing and crying.
I don't know what to do bar taking away her iPad (school issued) and listening to her.
Anyone been through this and how did you deal with it?
PS I've raised her not to be a bully and she knows how I feel about them.

I'm having massive problems with my 12 year old too. Just awful. I'm currently trying to calm down after the latest put down from her.

There is a Preteen Section, it's under "Being a Parent".

I hope you manage to get to the bottom of what's going on Thanks
