Kelsie vs. The Bully Round 2
(just to clarify, Kelsie is my 12 y.o. daughter, Cj is my 10 y.o. son)
So a couple of years ago Donald (yes that's his real name, and i'm not gonna change it to protect the little prick) had a crush on Kelsie. Donald behaved like the little shit he is, so Kelsie blew him off. This resulted in both Kelsie and Cj enduring several months of both verbal and physical abuse from Donald. I approached the school about this on several occasions and finally got the problem solved (or so I thought). Donald is one grade ahead of Kelsie, and moved on to middle school last year. It's the first day of school here today. Kelsie started middle school today, and the verbal abuse started the minute she got on the bus, and by lunch had escalated into him trying to trip her in the hall.
I have instructed Kelsie, just as I did last time this was an issue, to not react to him in any way, to not even acknowledge his existence. My reasoning for this is simple. If he is going to attack her, I want to be able to show that these attacks are completely unprovoked and that the kid is just an asshole. I have already spoken w/ the assistant principal about this, and about some of the history that has already taken place.
This time the school will take action and solve this problem, or I WILL go to the school board with it. I will not allow this to escalate to the point where the kid uses a weapon against her, like he did with Cj in elementary school (he was about 5 feet away from Cj and kicked a ball at him full force, hard enough to knock Cj down). If the kid physically assaults Kelsie again, I will call his parents myself. If that doesn't solve it, then I will get the police involved.
Can ya tell I'm about to let Cj kick the kids ass?
