[quote=Anonymous]I don't have older kids yet, but I feel like in middle school, kids threw around a lot of words without thought to the meaning. I'm not saying it's ok, but I don't think the fact that your daughter used the word 'slut' means anything in itself. She probably went through her little rolodex of bad words and out it came. It does sound like an altercation, not a bullying incident. However, I think your daughter is old enough to understand that she needs to think about the words she uses and her actions. In this case, she ended up using a highly-charged word that got her in a lot of trouble and could hurt someone. Those are the consequences of her actions. Have you talked to her about how she should have handled this situation correctly? It seems like that's a skill she will need in the future. [/quote]
