School Bully

[chris79]

Alright, sorry to hear about this it's not a nice thing either for your son, or for you as a parent.

If it was my situation to deal with I would go and see the headmaster/headmistress in the school, and request that they 'recruit' someone sensible within your son's class who can be trusted to 'keep an eye' on your son during lesson changes from a distance to witness this or find out who it is.

Once this has been found out/confirmed then appropriate action can be taken.

WHS. have your son have one of his friends stay with him. Identify the person and then watch nothing happen.

I would take a day or two off and perform survelience. When I spot the bully I would stuff my fist his mouth and his fathers. sorted.

Weren't you saying something about not fighting fire with fire in another thread?

1)I think this is a serious enough issue to phone and demand an appointment, or even turn up and demand to see the head. Normal 'petty' bullying is serious but is unavoidable sometimes, but for a blind kid it's totally different.

2)I know no blind people, but does he really not know who people are from their voices? Or will the school refuse to beleive him based only on hearing?

3)For someone with a blind child, your signature is rather strange, don't you think?

1 - As I said they have not had their time to respond.

2 - the school has 1600 kids in it - he doesn't know the voices of all of them.

3 - I suppose you could say that but it was something a deaf person said to me.

As for the guide dog mentioned in another post, you can't have one until you are 16 and a school is not a good place for them as the kids would constantly pet it etc

Had my lad saying that he was getting grief on the school bus every morning since staring secondary school from a kid a couple of years older than him (and having to use the bus day and night to get there and back)

Bus driver wasnt interested and school said it was outside their control

Basically went down to bus stop - found the largest eldest lad there and gave him £20 to sort out anyone who gave my lad grief.

Only had to do it the once - the bully stopped as he had the threat of the bigger kid kicking the cr@p of him if it continued or happened again

My lad started TaeKwonDo in the meantime - should be able to stick up a bit more for himself soon......

I like your style

why not?

Prob cos kids wouldn't be responsible enough to look after one - I suppose below age 16, an adult would be with the kid most of the time that a guide dog would be needed.

...and adults would?

Not saying it's right, but I'd like to hope that most adults with a guide dog deserve to have them and are fully capeable of looking after one.

Children love their pets to death, and assuming Tony lives in the same house as his son, there'll be adult supervision. Perhaps they should just get the kid a german shepherd and tell him to pretend it's a guide dog. he could tell the other kids it's a crap but very vicious guide dog.
