[QUOTE="Andy, post: 331212, member: 5096"] That girl does sound like a bully - and she has received undue power over wee. The teachers are sending her the message that she is allowed to harrass wee to no ends. You are correct about not being able to shelter from everything but you are also correct that this is one that you can shelter. Wee shouldn't have to deal with that all day harrassing. Those two should be as far apart as possible. If no one will work with the girl to make her actions unacceptable, then wee should not have to put up with them. Tonight I would praise him up and down at how well he worked at trying to avoid her. Let him know that you saw that she was being a pest - that it was very wrong of that girl to behave like that and you are so proud that Wee didn't let her make him explode or lash back at her. I am curious, when you got to the room and found no teacher, were there other parents there waiting as well or are parents just leaving their kids unattended? I would speak with the teacher and ask what school policy is. I know even in our small day school, kids in Pre-K and K are NEVER left alone for even a minute while the teacher runs to get something. Another teacher or a parent is asked to help watch the kids until the teacher returns. Can you imagine what would happen if Wee and that girl were left without an adult in the room? The girl would harrass, harrass, harrass Wee until his breaking point and get away with it while Wee would be the one in trouble because he got fed up and defended himself the only way he knew how. Our school also started a gathering of kids in the lunch room before school with volunteer adults to watch the kids until a set time that teachers had to be in the classroom. Kids knew if they got to school between 8:00 and 8:15/8:20 that they HAD to go to the lunch room to wait until school started. [/QUOTE]
