[quote=Anonymous]OP, I would want to be told, as well. I would take it seriously and actually not tell my child about the conversation. Instead, I would address it as a whole approach and emphasize better behavior with everyone.

Parents get extremely defensive about their children and find negative feedback to be very difficult.

I don't believe that all kids who bully are mimicking their parents. Sometimes, kids are just sh$ts on their own accord. They are their own people, to a degree. So, don't assume that their parents are equally bad. But, it is fairly safe to assume that their parents will have a hard time taking in the information. My neighbor teaches MS and gets it all the time.

A kid on the MS bus was making fun of other kids. A parent reported him. The kid went around, getting in kids' faces, asking who reported him. The behavior didn't stop. I've seen this happen several times.

You can ask the school for their suggestions. Ultimately, your kid will have to figure out how to deal with jerks. It sucks.[/quote]
