[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My son is a rough and tumble strong kid. He has been admonished for being to rough with his hands. This year at our new school boys have taken to calling him "bully" . They have also taken to hitting, kicking, punching , and pinching him. He is not defending himself because he has been told not to fight. I explained to him that calling somebody a Bully is calling them a name which is a form of bullying. Especially if the person is not bullying. I've also told him to defend himself. Any better suggestions? [/quote] With the current culture of no bullying it seems to me that bullying is still happening at an alarming rate. I’m sorry your son is himself being bullied. Have you spoken to his teachers and asked them to observe the situation? Maybe if your son knew his teachers were watching knowing you had spoken to them he might feel more empowered even if he doesn’t retaliate. If it escalates after speaking to the teachers make an appointment with the school administrator. Often an involved parent helps the overall situation. [/quote]
