[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]^^ I meant EXACTLY what I wrote about black on white bullying (my word, btw, not DC's). It is not horseplay when a student repeatedly threatens to harm a much smaller classmate. I'm so tired of the "horseplay" claim by the parents who allow their children to consume too much violent media -- in the adult world, this would not be considered horseplay, it would be a form of assault or harrassment.[/quote]

Ok, if that's what you meant then a parent should do what they feel is right to have the bullying stopped just make sure you have the whole story. I do know that bullying does in fact exist and I'm not saying that real bullying is or isn't going on at the school. What I am saying is that word has been thrown around too loosely and I am a black parent! There can be a lot to say about a lot of the kids there all you have to do is stand outside!!! Look at the many girls dressed as if they are going to a club and not school. SOMEBODY let them out the house like that and then look at how the boys respond. I personally know of children that have been accused of being bullies who are not or have never been bullies in previous schools but the freedom there is so overwhelming for the kids that some are handeling it better than others and that will eventually balence out but if you are insisting that you are the parent of someone or know a child that IS being bullied then you and that child needs to tell because telling goes a LOOONNGG way at Basis and I have seen children being punished for something simple as yelling in the hallway so I'm sure that REAL bullying wont go unnoticed or unpunished unless that's not the REAL whole story! Just saying....[/quote]
