[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]No, sometimes kids do just hit other kids who did nothing to provoke them. I have seen it happen. Yes, the aggressor probably needs help. But the victim is … the victim and should be supported. Too much attention to the aggressor and how they need to be helped while the victim continues to suffer. [/quote]

This isn’t true, there’s always a reason. Behavior always has an antecedent unless the person has a condition.

Also there is no proof this child is just the victim, in these cases there is usually a witness. Obviously the teachers did not side with her child. Hopefully the video does bring answers and everyone involved can understand even if someone says something horrible to you or you just don’t like them it’s not okay to hit them.[/quote]

Of course it has a reason. But the reason may have nothing to do with the victim. Why are you siding with the kid who punched? No wonder the parent wants the video. It seems no one can believe the victim unless someone is there recording it with a cellphone or something. [/quote]

Punching is never OK, so there's that. But in understanding the history of context of what happened, an impartial adult / adults need to look into it. They can then address what to put in place going forward. Especially as every incident isn't bullying, though this well may be. They need to establish what transpired (to the best of their ability), and whether it's part of a pattern of behavior that may even include other kids .[/quote]
