[QUOTE="totoro, post: 284267, member: 3155"] Poor Ducky- N is only 5 and going into K next year, but her pre-school teacher specifically came to me, after we had talked a few times about her boyfriend being very controlling, mean and causing N a lot of anxiety in and out of school, she felt they seriously needed to be in separate classes. N's personal growth and self-esteem were being affected. She was losing any sense of who she was. She would not make any decisions without checking with "D" first. Her Mom is one of those who does not really believe in "issues" for the most part. So we are leaving it up to the Teachers. The Mom really wanted them to be in the same class. I am playing dumb. LOL But this will also mean she is not in the same class as her new friend who is a sweet little boy. These are such hard choices, but N is much younger and this is a huge growing time for her. So I, knowing how much her anxiety is affecting her even going to school, felt this was more important then teaching her to deal with mean kids. At this time. K on the other hand will be in the class with the best teacher for her, regardless of the bullies. We talked to all of the teachers and the staff on the last week of school and we will have a meeting once school is back in session. We are making it known that K is very affected by all of this... etc. So I am dealing with both answers! N is more anxiety based and K is more, she will do whatever someone tells her to make people happy or to make friends. She also will sink into full blown depression if she thinks someone doesn't like her. So we are doing a "soft tough love" with K. We have set up escapes for K though, she can go to the teachers room at lunch or nurse etc... Sorry I hate this also! Girls are cruel... Especially when they think they have a sensitive one like most of our girls. [/QUOTE]
