I hate mean kids!!!!

[binny]

Today Kaylee was at lunch and these kids decided to gang up on her.

They were hitting her tray and trying to make her spill her lunch all over.

She started to cry and they started laughing at her and teasing her more. Then her friend yelled at her to tell her to be quiet and that's when the principal walked in.

Long story short everyone got called out of class ( except Kaylee) and got a stern talking to. They missed late recess and they all had to write Kaylee a letter of apology.
The kids that were in her class got even more of a talking to. Her teacher was really upset with that they would do that to her.

She was just beside herself. I know she needs to toughen up a bit, she is really sensitive, but this was ridiculous! They really ganged up on her.


I hate that I cant protect her from this stuff and I know she needs to grow up but why does it have to be so hard?

That story made me cry. That is the meanist and yet saddest thing i've ever heard. I'm very sorry.

 

[KelNottAt]

Aw. That's rough. Give her a hug from your friends on the DIS.

 

[madalynns mom]

I feel so bad for her. Kids can be so mean!! I just don't undrstand why they do things like that. Give her a big hug

 

[SDFgirl]

As a teacher, that infuriates me. It's the sweetest kids who are the hurt the most by it. I'm glad the principal stepped in.

Give your sweetie a hug from us and remind her that any kid who truly feels good about themselves wouldn't make fun...these kids must be pretty insecure inside to gang up on her.

Because they're little brats.

Give your DD a hug for me. But take pride in knowing that your daughter is better than that.

I am so sorry that your daughter was treated like that. I was teased as a child. Kids can be so mean. I still live with the pain from he teasing, even though it was over 20 years ago. I don't know if my insecurities will ever go away. I hope and pray that my children never be a victim. Just reassure your daughter of your love. I hope that she will feel that she is a better person and that even though it may seem like eternity for you and her, those people will not mean anything years from now. I feel her pain and i wish that i could take that away for any child that experiences the nasty laughter and teasing from other children. I am glad that the teacher was supportive of her and did not just brush it off.
My thoughts will be with her and you!

Im so sorry for your daughter...This really makes me mad! More so as a mom now but when I was in high school some 15 years ago this behavior used to infuriate me! A few times I had had enough, lost it and stood up to one of the bullies(this one had FAS as I remember - floating arm syndrome-you know hulk style) and told him off, that he must really be an insecure loser overcompensating for some very small inadequacy, asking if it really made him feel like a man to pick on someone smaller and less popular then he. So, didn't go over very well almost got punched-steriods, but I got my point across. Anyway, back from the sidebar tangent, I try to make the point to my kids that its the bullies that are insecure, and if you see it happening even if you don't know the kid getting bullied don't be affraid to stand beside the one getting picked on and say "enough, its not cool, does it make you feel better about yourself to pick on someone else? It is a shame that some kids are so mean. I hope your daughter doesn't have any more trouble and these bullies in training have learned there lesson..

That is horrible. I hope they made these kids parents aware of their behavior. If I ever found out my kids acted like that I think I'd go ballistic. However my kids are very sensitive to other people's feelings. I really do think some of it has to do with the way kids are raised, and other kids just go along with the crowd. I hope things get better for her really soon.

Her teacher was really upset with that they would do that to her.(

I bet they had a ring leader that instigated it.

for your DD

 

[llij]

to your DD. Poor thing! I hate it when kids are mean. It breaks my heart.

I may be completely out of line and mistaken, and if I am I apologize. Is your daughter special needs? I thought I remembered other posts where you said she was. Due to his disability/social skills issues DS will be having an aide with him during all unstructured activities, including lunch and recess beginning next year to ensure his safety/prevent bullying. If your daughter has special needs it might be something to consider. Again, I apologize if I'm completely off-base.

 

[mommaU4]

I am very sorry that happened. This is one of the few things that really makes me mad. I mean furious.

It is hard enough these days to be a kid. There is so much pressure placed on kids to learn more and more at an earlier age than we had to. And they are exposed to so much more at a younger age. The last thing they need is to have to deal with crap like this on top of everything else.

I have no feelings for the kids who are the ones doing the bullying. I don't care if they are someone else's child. Seeing the way some kids act towards other kids makes my blood boil. Most of them show no remorse either.

Anyways, I hope your DD is doing okay. Just keep reminding her to stay focused on her work and do well in school. One day she'll be successful and happy and none of this will matter.

I hate mean kids too. I'm very sad for you and your little girl...........

Youre not out of line at all My youngest is special needs. This is my "non IEP" kid. ( Please nobody get offended by that statement, I would never say it in front of any of them. I just have a kid on each on each of the spectrum, 2 IEPS, one for gifted and one for special needs so we joke that at least we have one who isnt either)

Anyway, Kaylee is just a sweetheart of a kid with a very vivid imagination. She likes to act and do plays and cheer and play dolls. Shes very creative. She takes care of her little sister so much and is just a "mom" kind of a kid KWIM? She cant stand to see anyone (or anything) hurt and she always notices if someone is sick and does her best to help them.
Im not saying she's perfect but she is a very sweet natured child.


Her friends mom called me, she works at the school, and said that her ds was in tears because he yelled at Kaylee. He was trying to protect her from the other kids, he stood up to them and yelled at them and when they wouldnt leave her alone he just yelled "Be quiet Kaylee!" and thats when the principal walked in.
He got called down to the principals office too so I felt bad about it. His mom wanted to know Kaylee's side of the story ( theyve been friends for years as we go to the same church and are in the same groups) her story was the same, he tried to help her.


I need to add that these are FIRST graders. Thats what blew me away. All of them were in grade one.

 

[mommaU4]

I was just about to ask you how old these kids are. Grade one huh? Jeez, can you imagine what they will be like by junior high or high school if they continue like this? That scares me.

 

[jackskellingtonsgirl]

I'm sorry your poor little DD had this happen!

My 4th grade DS is being bullied, too. A kid is threatening him. I'm going to demand a meeting with the principal in the morning and our attorney said to file a police report. It seems like even kids who aren't really "bullies" are still just mean and rude if the opportunity presents itself.

I hope the kids involved learned their lesson. I can understand not being friends with everyone, because there are adults I don't care for. But I am not trying to trip anybody or threatening to shoot anybody with a BB gun.

 

[clh2]

Binny- hugs to your DD. And luckily she has a friend that tried to stand up for her. Maybe the principal should be asked to ackowledge that for her friend?

Now, I may really be off base her, I have no practical experience here, just heresay from other I know. Would enrolling her in something like "tea kwon do" help? I seem to recall this happening to a co-workers daughter. I think the tae kwon do really helped her DD's overall self esteem, and gave her some "tools" to help her deal with the bullies. Again, I don't really know much about this, but I do know it is a very popular sport. Maybe someone on the DIS could help?
