So, my daughter has a friends, let’s call them Apple and Cherry. Apple was dd’s bff. Apple edited Cherry’s photo and posted it on whatsapp. Apple told Cherry that it was my daughter, who did it. It happened last Oct, and somehow this spread out and my daughter was harassed by other kids in verbal and text. Her responded was only telling them to back off, this has nothing to do with you, leave me alone.
out of nowhere, last week dd was called by her teacher, apparently Cherry reported her (Cherry was there too). When the teacher accused her, she told the truth that it wasn’t her but Apple. So the teacher called Apple as well. The moment Apple saw DD and Cherry, she started crying. And when asked she denied it heavily. Under pressure from the teacher, Apple and Cherry, DD admitted and apologised. the teacher called me and notify me about what is happened.
i talked with DD and i believe her. She also show me her phone. Then we managed to found a message from Apple asked DD to told Cherry that the one who edited her photo was my younger son. Dd refused, and Apple said “ too late, i already told cherry and she didn’t believe it, she think you did it.” Dd was upset and asking why did you do that, Apple said if not Cherry will be very angry at her.
I emailed the teacher all chat records as proves and ask the teacher to investigate it and clear dd name. It has been 3 days but no response from the teacher. She also didn’t call dd to ask about the situation. So how long should i give time for the teacher to response? Or should i escalate this to the head of school?
meanwhile, apple was telling everyone else that dd backstabbed her, push the blame to her and humiliated her in front of the teacher. And dd experiences harassment from others again
