[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I think calling Lucas pookis is funny. All this over a joke. OMG how about Lucas get over himself.

I don't think 1 boy at our kids school does not get a nickname at some point he doesn't love.

Just stop hanging around pookis. [/quote]

Imagine you are Lucas and this is your life 180 days a year. It’s not a nick name. [b]It’s bullying.[/b] [/quote]

Not PP but jeezus.  No it isn't bullying, it's teasing.  It's annoying but harmless.  Bullying ruins lives, STOP equating the two because you aren't doing any good to anyone.[/quote]

It's considered verbal bullying, which is different from harmful teasing.  My kid has been the victim of verbal bullying and it is deeply hurtful to her.

No, its not.  It isn't bullying. It's teasing.  The other child isn't being intimidated, the other child isn't being harmed, the other child isn't being traumatized.  Please stop taking away the very real experience of bullying by watering it down with this nonsense.  The other child WAS NOT HARMED.  He was annoyed.  There is a difference.[/quote]

Please tell my SN DD, who regularly came home crying, that she isn't intimidated or traumatized.  I am sure she will understand the difference when you explain it to her.  Also read the link I posted.  Perhaps you can let them know that there is no such thing as verbal bullying unless an adult considers it "traumatizing."[/quote]

Have you noticed something?

This thread is not about your daughter. The SN kid in question here is the one who is provoking. Not the one being provoked.

Again, this isn't bullying even if it is directed at a SN kid. That is a heavy charge to throw at a child who is calling a kid Lucas pookis.  If that's what you consider bullying then you will have a long road of righteous indignation ahead of you which will serve no purposes other than to make you feel misunderstood. I suggest instead you try to see this for what it is: a kidmwho lacks impulse control and is calling another kid a completely unoffensive, yet annoying, nickname. That's all it is. [/quote]

So basically we now all understand that your kid bullies other children and you want the school to treat it as “just harmless teasing”.[/quote]

No, my SN kid has never bullied anyone, he has been graded and I've taught him how to deal with it. As a result, he's built resilience and doesn't have to fall apart when someone jokes with him. It's a great skill, you might want to try it. [/quote]

Your child learned to bully from you. [/quote]
