[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Honestly, it sounds a bit like a troll post to me. The coach of the team wasn't invited to this event? Other parents (when you've all known each for years) weren't invited? Not one other child on the team gave your daughter a heads up they were being excluded? It is hard to imagine how the coach, parents, girls would not all be talking about this "once in a lifetime event" weeks/days in advance. If you are a troll, well-played my friend, it is an interesting scenario to discuss.

I think if this happened to my child, I would first bounce the whole situation off my closest (or potentially most discreet, sympathetic) parent friend in the group-- you have known each other for years, right? I would mention it to the coach as well.

I would also make sure there haven't been other incidents. A one time "prank" like this is not bullying. I also think it is very unusual that this just suddenly happened, and no other excluding behaviors have been going on (either directed at your daughter or other girls on the team).

Be prepared to have no resolution. It is not your right to know how the coach is going to "punish" the offenders (if he even does). No way these girls will get kicked off the team or any of the other completely outlandish punishments have been suggested in this thread.

I think the mom of the bully found this thread. Otherwise why would you think this is made up?[/quote]
