[quote=Anonymous]One thing OP...and I am definitely not in the blame the victim camp but ask your son or try to get a sense of whether he tries to hang out with these boys ever.  Based on your postings, I am guessing no but there is a very sweet girl in my DD's class who is bullied partially because she wants to be friends with these mean girls.  She is sweet and doesn't understand the social dynamics.  It doesn't make it right but I would triple check that angle.  Also, I agree with PP's who say be careful with your demands with the school.  If I were in your situation, I would want immediate action.  I'm sure the kid is known to the administration already but they are under political stress in how they handle this.  BTW- Sometimes being right/ proving your right isn't the best outcome.  For example if you have a green light and someone is barreling through a red light (opposite direction)  are you willing to pass through the intersection and potentially get yourself killed.  Extreme example, but what difference does it make that you had the right away if you get killed.  I suppose you could put it on your gravestone.  Things like this go on everywhere.  When I was young, the bullies/bullied only in the afternoon so I would walk home (3 mile walk). My parents could have complained but if they did, I personally believed my personal safety would have been in jeopardy.  Walking home didn't hurt me at all.  It was a great way to clear my mind.  There are a lot of things like this is life (not fair).  Tread carefully.[/quote]
