[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Most bullies are beat on at home or otherwise abused, and thus they take it out at school. There are some that may have true medical issues, in which case a special class may be required. Regardless, innocent kids shouldn't be traumatized and should be able to learn in peace without emotional and physical trauma.[/quote] True, but you should not label a small child a "bully" yet; and in general they must be kept in the regular mainstream classroom. But, you'd be very surprised by just how much a willing school and teacher can do to curb aggressive behavior. In our case, my son went from regular incidents to literally none, just by switching to a more responsive setting. So really, for the younger kids, you need to be looking first to the teacher & the school if you are concerned or impacted. I don't have insight into what should happy when it's actual bullying with older kids (like 7-8?)[/quote]
