Q. I talked to the teacher about a bullying situation that my son told me about, but the teacher insists that my son is provoking the situation and the school won’t do anything about it. What should I do? A. Regardless of whether a child is at the giving or receiving end of bullying, the school needs to deal with it. It may be that your son is a provocative victim, and does set himself up in bullying situations. If that is the case, the school should work with you to teach him some skills and strategies that will help him deal with challenging situations. Someone else may be setting your son up to be bullied, but you and your child need an adult to intervene. Make an appointment with the teacher. Explain that your child is still experiencing a problem and needs some help. Approach the meeting with problem-solving in mind. *Note - this question part of the book "How Parents Can Take Action Against Bullying"

Unfortunate Its unfortunate, and maybe a school change is needed - but beware bullying occurs just as intensely at private schools, and they are as ill-equipped to deal with the situation as many public schools. You need to encourage your son to immediately report incidents. Often the problem for teachers is that we are not informed until days or weeks later, and usually by a parent, or someone other than the student. Then, students are often reluctant to give up the names of the bullies, so there is little that can be done. It's an untenable situation - but sometimes working with the victims can help empower them to avoid the situations or stop them in their tracks before anything happens. |

Teachers pass the buck! Our daughter has been having trouble with the same girl for several years now. The first teacher in grade 2 sounded like she agreed with the bully when she said "well she is a little larger then the other kids" "perhaps exercise would be a good idea" The girls were in grade 4 togetherand the bullying has reached a new level. My daughter is a A+ student and has several friends however this one girl always seems to knock her out of the water everytime. The other girls I have spoken to have said they two have been bullyed by her but somehow they all waint for her to be nice that one day and magicly she is their friend for the day. She has made comments about kids colour,weight,height really anything goes. My husband and I have addressed the teacher many times. The last fight was a big one. My daughter was not aloud to play with a ball and in the end this little girl told another kid to give it to her and she did right on the head. We again approacher the teacher with nothing done about it. I tried the parent however her daughter said nothing and was not even told to say sorry. This year her teacher seperated our daughter from the few friends she does have and put the girls together once again.  |

parent Catholic schools are worse than Public in a sense that the students are bullied by the self righteous who are not held accountable and I am refferring to the coaches, the AD and the principal. They have no one to answer to so it continues. It is happening in a Catholic High School in Allentown PA. |

Difference I was bullied by many of the guys and girls in my classes growing up. It got to the point that I came home crying almost every day, but something was done. I was moved to a private school, and the bullying stoped. No, I didn't really fit in, but I was accepted. I am going to be graduating from that school this year, and I am so thankful I came to the school. I met some people who literally saved my life. |
