[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Don't put up with this. The school can send a monitor to 
the stop or on the bus if they have to. This is absolutely 
bullying - physical bullying. Those kids need to be banned from the bus if it happens again. None of the 6th graders I 
knew at a FCPS school last year when DS was in that grade
would EVER have done that. It's not normal. [/quote]

This is not bullying.  Rude, unexceptable behavior, yes.  Bullying?  Not yet.

Bullying includes targeting of a specific child, not just being jerks to everyone around.  It could evolve into bullying, especially if mom is jumping in and telling the other kids to let her kid go first.

Mom, if you want to help, talk to the school about the general bad behavior of these sixth graders, and give them the specific example of shoving past the other kids.

Don't do what you did.  You are just going to make the situation grow to a point where your daughter will actually be bullied, given her age.   (If she were a 2nd grader, I would say different, but your daughter is one of the big kids now)[/quote]
