At the pool yesterday, an older boy took some of my daughter's pool toys.  My daughter is 6, but tall for her age.  When DD asked for the toy back, the older boy gleefully held it out of her reach and refused to give it to her.  DD started crying and yelling at him, but he still wouldn't give it back.

My DH said we shouldn't intervene, but I was disgusted that this boy, probably 10 years old and much larger than DD, was taking things and taunting my daughter.  His mother did not intervene at all, nor did the lifeguard.  I wanted to have a few words with the little twit, but DH wanted DD to handle it.

What would you have done?  How would you tell your DD to handle this?

I would have spoken to the life guard and asked for a .meeting with whoever is the boss of the pool and get the other kid one warning and if he did it again then he is banned from pool.  His mother sounds like she doesn' care.[/quote]

LOL BANNED from the pool over a toy??? Get over yourself[/quote]

He had no right to take her toys and bulky her.  Bullies should be banned from pool.[/quote]
