Re: Bullying
I think that even if a child is bullied that is still no reason to go and shoot people...
although i think we need to teach our kids that bullying is totally unacceptable.
There is someone in our neighborhood that my oldest, who is 5.5, grew up with. they were 6 months old when me and this mom met and starting around 9 or 10 or so months this other child would scratch and bite at my daughter...
this child bit my dd at her 2nd bday and possibly pushed her off our front brick stairs at my dd's 3rd bday.
although they always wanted to play and got excited to see each other they mostly fought...
then last year at least (sooner although dont recall when exactly) things got out of hand with the other child. she DID NOT like other kids playing with my dd and at my dd's 5th bday the other child was actually very mean to other kids trying to sit in the bday chair with my dd. I saw her being mean to other kids and even saw her verbally threaten a 1 yr old at our pool. she would be mean to other kids that were her friends and got very upset once when "her" friend picked my dd to swim beside. they were going up the swimming ladder and this child shoved my daughter and she almost fell off. her mom said it was probably an accident but NO it wasnt. i saw what happened. and that was how things always were...her daughter didnt mean to do it.
This child was also boy crazy (keep in mind she was just 5). she would chase around these boys and yell cute boy but that is going off subject. i didnt want my dd learning to be a bully or to chase boys and slowly tried to dwindle the friendship...although for some reason she stopped talking to me so that is done...
and i am so thankful that they go to different schools because if not they could not have been in the same room or the teacher's life would have been hell!!
