bulling?

[Memoo]

I've just had a phone call from dd's (age 9) school to say that they can't find her lunch. told them she had definately taken it in with her. They told me they had found her bag but there was no lunch inside it! some little sh1t has taken my daughters lunch from her bag and thrown it away or hidden it. I'm furious and really upset. How can kids be so very cruel and nasty. have been assured that teacher will deal with it but i'm very tempted to go in myself, but afraid i might get very cross

How do you deal with these things?

i wouldn't go in...teachers are in loco parentis so you wouldn't be allowed to get at the little sh*ts....sympathise with feeling though, it's horrid....see if teachers do deal with it...give dd a big cuddle when she comes home and see if she will tell you what happened

You need to find out if this has happened to any other children first, just incase it is a little sh*t who acts at random. The teachers will deal with it, just talk to your daughter after school and find out if there's anyone who's been nasty to her. poor thing. What a horrid thing to do. At least the school will give her something to eat.

are you ok?

Oh your poor daughter. DS1 (13) has been bullied this week over my disability - I contacted the school and they have dealt with it. I was pissed off though because the children lied and the teacher took their sides (until witnesses spoke up) and also as one boy cried they think he is an angel and we have mistaken identity. This child regularly threatens to break DS2's legs but because his elder sister was well behaved and got good GCSE results they think he is good too!
I hope the school deals with it properly and finds the little shit. I also hope they have fed her.

i've calmed down a bit but its awful to think for my little girl at school upset, kind of want to go and get her and bring her home. i don't get these kids who are just hell bent on upsetting other kids, i know my daughter is no angle herself but she would never do anything to hurt someone. have decided to have a chat with teacher after school and daughter too to see if anything else has happen that she hasn't told me about

bullying is the biggest worry about school isn't it...well it is for me....i think you do right to go in after school and see what they have found out....

mumoftwo that really is awful, is your ds ok now, did the school sort it out properly? bullying is awful, it can wreak a childs self esteem for the rest of their lives!

School gave dd a school dinner, to their credit they ahve really looked after her. It just makes you want to go in and slap the kids who are being so nasty!!

Yes thanks Memoo - it was 5 12 year olds, followed him home calling him names and then started calling me names. He came through the door an burst in to tears - not because of waht they had said about him but he was worried I would be upset at what they had said about me. I know children can be cruel but as much as my two are nt angels I can never imagine them being so intentionaly cruel to someone else.
The school DS goes to are very good when it comes to bullying and they will deal with incidents out of school whilst the children are in uniform. All 5 are in "remove" today where they are taught in a grotty building away from thier peers and their parents are being informed too. Don't think some of the parents will care though!

how did it go?

memoo, as a mum who uses a scooter because i can't walk far i feel i'm very visibly differeny...at preschool they think my scooter is interesting and fun and dd almost has extra kudos because of it ....i hope it continues at school....it really gets me in the guts that she might get bullied about it....i really feel for you
