[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][b]OP, this meeting is very likely for the school's benefit, not yours, not the other family's, not the kids'.[/b] As a PP already said, it will allow the school to say, we got the parents together, it was amicable, families at this school talk things out, we're proactive about facilitating discussion here, etc. That's not about your child, it's about the school wanting to create a record that it had this meeting.

+1 OP if the school failed your child, tell them.  And if they try to waste your time creating a record to benefit themselves, feel free to leave.  Don't worry about the bullying child's parents.  The school probably failed their child too.

+1. Op you do not need to go to thiseetong. The only explanation I have seen on this thread that makes sense is that the school is doing this so they can say they had the meeting and “did something” about the bullying. It won’t do anything. (I know because we went to such a meeting (my 40 lb 10 year old asd child apparently hit a kid on the playground in that case.. a whole other thread.). If you do not feel the meeting will be helpful you can simply ask what the objective of the meeting is and then tell them that your object is to work with the school to create a safe environment for your child.  My best to you, I am sorry this happened to your child, I hope your next school is better.  [/quote]
