[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Current scms 6th grade boy parent. He is bullied relentlessly (called fag or gay). He doesn’t have adhd but does have social anxiety. He told a teacher this is happening and the teacher  that unless they see it or unless he reports it nothing can be done. He is terrified to report for fear of making the bullying worse. I thought about personally reaching out to the school but my kid (and husband) didn’t want me to for fear or more bullying. So if bullying is a really concern stay in private. We are considering a switch next year due to this. He has not come out but is small for his age and is very soft spoken. I do think the principal and teachers are lovely. The other issue is that they require kids to go on outdoor service learning (mcps wide). I think he will be “sick” those days bc I worry about the impact of the bullying (which is sad bc I wish he would make more friends). We moved to the area during the pandemic. Good luck OP! [/quote]

I am so sorry this is happening to your son. I would not hesitate to reach out to the school for help. They can’t intervene/help nip the behavior if they don’t know this is happening. It was brave of your son to ask the teacher for help. It sounds like there was a miscommunication and that the teacher possibly wanted him to fill out the mcps bullying form since he or she didn’t witness the incidents directly and the form has a space for all the details. I would really give the school a chance to make this better for your son. There are a lot of really nice kids in that particular grade. With time, I’m confident your child will find his people as this ordeal is resolved. [/quote]
