| There’s a child who is a known bully at my son’s school. He’s older than the other kids and calls my sign names and says he’s ugly and fat. Would you negative request him for your child next year to assure they won’t get the same teacher and classroom? They aren’t in class this year. My son has some anxiety but is otherwise a very happy, well liked kid with many friends and doesn’t really struggle with bullying aside from this kid. The parent is not really managing her child’s behavior. I’ve heard the same complaints from at least a dozen parents about this child being mean over the years. |
| Yes |
| Of course. Why wouldn’t you? |
I usually don’t get involved in class requests and my son is thriving and well liked and this kid doesn’t have many friends. If doesn’t seem like a huge issue for my son so I wonder if I’m being a helicopter to get involved |
| Absolutely put in a separation request. —Teacher |
Your concern is your kid, not the unraised |
| Would you reach out to the parents about this? |
And? Sorry to seem cold but your top priority is protecting your son from this bully. |
I’m just pointing out that this kid is paying the price for his nasty behavior. |
| Yes you should reqyest this. But of he's a known a problem a lot of patches will requrst this so your kids might end up with him anyway |
True! what is the deal with these kinds of parents. |
Apologies, I misunderstood you. |

I told my son to stand up for himself. This bully got in my sons face at recess and my son pushed him down. The kid never bothered him again. My son is now 20 years old and is built like a linebacker.

I said the same thing. |
