Yes I have, or am rather! I am at my wits end with it all. The school only deals with things that occur on the school ground and of course only if its been witnessed). Now it is happening at my front door! Last week it went on for two hours! Foul language and spitting through the letter box, they jammed my electricity token box, stole his coat...and they stand at the door for hours on end waiting for him to come out. It is ridiculous! This week he has been threatening him for playing with a kid at school because he is 'brown' and told him he will get sick and die for playing with him! So again I will be meeting with the school authorities. It just seeems to be a never ending cycle. And as in your case, the parents of this child too are hopeless to deal with. And to think these are first graders! It's ridiculous! I'm open to suggestions too. MorningGlory  |

I'm Glad to see I'm not the only one going through this. I am thinking the cops will be my next step. It is awful!  |

sad thing is is that I actually feel for the child, Part of me knows it because he may not know how to show "friendship" because of his homelife. Maybe agression is his sign of affection. but still, the abuse cannot continue. |

I am so sorry for what you and your son are going through, LadyShaman! And they have been reported to the state MultipleTimes!!! This makes me sick to my stomach!!Now, your child must be singled out, and that is wrong in itself! Where in the world has people's plain logic gone to? I mean, there is a situation here that could scar YOUR child, a good kid, for life! And the state doesn't see fit to remove this child from his parents? So many things I just do not understand anymore! You both will be in my prayers tonight! Love and Light  |

i dont blame you for being angry about this ... this kid sounds like a little brat to me. You made a good point though, about his parents and you probably have a reason to feel sorry for him. But at the same time, your son shouldnt be put through this treatment. Maybe it'll get to the stage that this boy will be expelled from the school?? i guess there is only so much a school can do before its out of their hands. goodluck  |

I have a little experience from the other end of it actually. my step-brother is now 11 years old, but since i've met him, when he was 7 he is a terrible bully. the has been kicked out of school and even banned from a few local stores for stealing when he was 8. and my step mother doesn't miss treat him. her problem is, she always takes his side. she is not willing to believe that her son is bad, she always finds a way to think someone is over reacting, or twisting the story around. she eventually did have to put him in home school. he gave a kid a black eye on the 2nd day of 2nd grade! but if you as her why she took him out of school, she says its because the OTHER kids were picking on him. Some people are hopeless  |

I was in a similar situation a few years back with my oldest son (now 16) This one kid constantly bullied and beat on him..The school was notified, the parents were notified and it still continued..I even had the police go to his house and try to put a scare into him..to no avail. This kid was very persistant..He was at the time in grade 6 and my son was in grade one. They went to the same school though. Finally I told my son to kick him as hard as he could where it hurts the most the next time this boy tried anything..and he did..and the school tried to punish my son!! NO WAY was I allowing that to happen. I informed them that I HAD told them everything and told the police and the boys parents and nothing happened. I will tell you this though..After my son confronted him he never touched him again. Now I dont condone violence, but in this case it worked. The child needed a taste of his own medicine to get him to back off and leave my son alone.  |
