Looking for some opinions
School mum friend called me to say she was going into school to speak to class teacher as her dd told her Pupil X was calling her names etc
She also said dd told her Pupil X also called my dd names and made a particular mean comment about friendship groups also.
I spoke with dd about it and although she confirmed it was true she wasn't bothered by it and was very blasé. She rolled her eyes, said oh its Pupil X, he's always mean,no one listens to him, his opinion doesn't matter etc
I spoke with her again today, we talked about how she doesn't have to accept getting called names by anyone and that Pupil X has no right to behave that way etc and she accepts this but insists he is irrelevant to her and therefore doesn't need to report it to the teacher or need me to contact the school.
On one hand I admire her attitude but in the other I don't want her to accept name calling, comments etc
Should I contact the school regardlessly? Should I leave it with her to judge its severity / importance?
