[QUOTE="KTMom91, post: 178554, member: 4040"] We've been there done that as well. Girls can be mean little creatures. There are several things I had Miss KT try, with varied sucess. If the bullying was taking place when an adult was nearby, she would shout something like, "Why are you teasing me again?" at the top of her voice. Definitely got attention, and that helped tone things down at school. I had already spoken with the teachers about the problem, so they knew what to expect. I also worked with her on fighting back with her words, not her fists, although she had my permission to hit anyone who hit her first. The fighting back worked better in junior high. When the same girl who had picked on her all during sixth grade started again in seventh, she told the girl exactly what she thought about her, her parentage, her status in life...and the girl couldn't take it and ran crying to a teacher. When I got the call from school, I pointed out that this was an ongoing problem, I was sure Miss KT hadn't started this one, and if the school wasn't going to protect my child, I was going to the next board meeting to ask for help. The girl miraculously transferred to another school, and Miss KT felt much stronger. [/QUOTE]
