Scared Part 3 KID CONFESSED!!!!!

[DisneyCP2002]

I'm glad this finally got resolved.

I am glad you have closure on the situation.

I am sooo glad this is solved. I am glad the child will get help and I think it's great for your family to talk to someone too.
Have a wonderful, stress-free weekend!!

The school has offered me councilling as I had a meltdown the other night. I guess it was all the stress I was under and never realized it.

We have also asked that if the child is in the same grade as Chloe that they NOT be in the same class next year. Principal told me that she realized that too.

I think the last principal made light of the situation and just didn't push enough and just hoped it went away. This new principal pushed for what we wanted (a camera was going in and police were coming in) which made all the difference.

My DH is the rock in all this . He was very professional through all of this. He said you have to give them a time limit to do something and then make your move. That's what happened last time. We pushed and pushed and they backed off and made light of the whole thing. And of course when there were no more notes for the 2 weeks they thought it was over.

I have also relayed (via Principal) to the parents of the child a thankyou for the apology as I think they needed to hear that to help them heal. I was so mad at this child before but now I have empathy for this kid and the parents.
I hope the therapy helps this child become a better person.

By the way Chloe turns 10 on Sunday. She told me that this was an awesome birthday present!!!

Wonderful news! I agree what a great tenth b'day present for Chloe! My oldest dd is also ten. What a neat age!

Regarding the child that did this...hopefully he/she will get the help they need and this will save them from doing something even bigger/worse later in life to get attention.

So glad the new principal didn't mess around. Sounds like she's got her act together.

Take care.

You have a big heart to have concern for the child that caused your DD (and your family) such stress.
I hope time will heal the damage and make these events a faint memory for all concerned.

I am so happy for you. You should really take the school up on their offer for counseling. As you experienced, you go through the days thinking everything is alright and then you finally break down. Counseling certainly won't hurt.

I am glad it is over for your family.

I know I sound like an old prude, but some of the books, video games, and TV I feel is hurting our children.

BTW, I am 34 saying this and I remember 15 years thinking exactly what I am saying now was hogwash.

 

[SC Minnie]

I am so glad to hear they found out who was doing this.

 

[mickeyfan2]

Glad that this is all over now.

My eleven year old neice was knocked to the floor this morning by a bully in her school and had her two front teeth smashed and her lips and gum torn by the impact.

By reading this thread I was able to offer a lot of good advice to my neice's mother about how to handle things (get the police in immediately to file an assault report) and to document and record *everything*.

Thanks for including us all in your journey, and know that it has helped others...

Wow, I missed this big update since I was on vacation. So glad the kid confessed and your family can work through this and eventually put this behind you. Hopefully the boy will get the help he needs and it was a stupid youthful mistake and he can move past it. So glad it's over for you (not that there aren't things to work through).

 

[keypooh90]

I am so glad that it is finally over for yall. Now Chole and your family can begin to heal.

 

[ToTLaugher]

So glad it is over for you. Enjoy your weekend!

This thread is full of wonderful news, including the forgiveness you were able to extend. Hopefully this has been a negetive experience that will have positive implications for all concerned.

Shame shame on you for not telling us a update on the other thread.
Thankfully bgirldeb posted a link here.
Seriously though, so glad things are coming to an end and you all can begin the healing process!
Tell you sweet daughter that we say Happy Birthday to her!

 

[canwegosoon]

Glad it is over

 

[mbw12]

wow. Tnator....I have followed your daughters story and all of your updates. I am SO relieved for you. Still I think it must be still scary.....but atleast now you can begin your daughters healing process and find some closure.

By the way I went out and bought rose's for the Principal, Vice Principal and Chloe's teacher.
We are also writing a letter to the Director of the school board about how this principal handled everything (in 4 days too) and how professional she is. We want to make sure it goes on her record.

IN 4 DAYS!!! THat other principal should be held personally responsible for the horror she put your family through. Get an attorney- this was uncalled for. You could have been posting this in December, and the child who did it would have come foward and help could have been gotten earlier instead of being allowed to fester.

Good luck to you!
