[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP again.  I've had a heart-to-heart with my DD.  Here's what we've decided (at least so far):

1.  She has decided to stay on the team.

2.  I've agreed not to take any affirmative steps to tell school or coach.

3.  She understands that if someone asks me, in the normal course of conversation, where we were that I will not lie, that I will say matter-of-factly what happened.

4.  She will try to maintain a new vigilance about who to trust and will stick up for anyone else in the locker room who may be targeted in the future.

5.  I have offered (and she is thinking over) to get her some extra coaching to help move to Varsity so she will have a little respite from these girls (not in the locker room but at least at outside events).

I'll check back on Monday to let anyone interested know what happened when I ran into parents this weekend (if I do and I think I will).

These are good ideas.  She should also pretend she is over it, and make friends with the nicer girls in the group.[/quote]

Pretend it didn't happen? How about people being accountable for being a$$holes? The only way a bully learns to stop is when someone stands up to them. You do this the first time they try to pull anything on you and you will see them back down really quick. [/quote]
