[quote=Anonymous]This is such a tough issue. I eventually switched schools when it got really bad. At first I told my son to ignore the mean kid. Then we got the teachers and school counselor involved. The mean kid was not doing anything physical, but he taunted and followed my son ALL the time. The school tried to help, but nothing they did really worked. My son was miserable and it affected his self-esteem. We eventually switched schools. The one thing I should have done is personally contacted the mean kid's parents. I was reluctant to escalate it to that extent, because I wanted to believe that the kids could work it all out. The mean kid lived close to us, and I didn't want it to become a huge neighborhood rift. That was a mistake. Perhaps the parents might have been able to help (I doubt it, though). We love our new school and my son is very happy. [/quote]
