[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Dealing with some issues at a small religious school. Kid says she can “survive” another year but I’m ready to pull her out.  There’s no physical bullying but dealing with a small group of really insecure and insensitive girls who go out of the way to to be especially cruel to my daughter and one another.  They are 10.

Call the school and the parents of girls involved. Sounds like you have nothing to lose. If it doesn’t help or makes it worse pull her and reach out to other schools. It is to the Bullies’ advantage to stay silent. [/quote]

Call each parent and tell them what their daughter is doing. [/quote]

The thing is, not including someone or ignoring them sometimes is not discipline worthy behavior.  You can’t MAKE girls at this age include someone without there being some type of resentment.  OP just needs to move her.  For those who say all middle school experiences suck, that is not true.  Our experience in private middle has been mediocre but our friends in our local public middle school have well adjusted kids with lots of social options - everyone has found a crew and seems genuinely happy.  My DD only has one year of middle school left but I wish I had just sent her to our neighborhood W middle school.  [/quote]
