[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]We're experiencing this in 8th. Surprised it took this long tbh. We spoke with the coach and he gave a speech on sportsmanship etc. I think that was helpful. I'm not afraid to pull my kiddo for another team if need be. Bullying doesn't toughen up your kid, it just damages their self esteem to the point of no return. Don't listen to the bullies on the board ;)[/quote] Agreed. Also, the advice to try and be friends with the parents and/or kids to improve social status in hopes it will stop is the saddest thing ever. As adults, we can often strategically navigate the politics of the workplace or hobbies to get what we want. But a sixth grader entering puberty? To extend the 2000s movie analogy, there is always the trope of the one kid in the cool kid friend group who doesn't quite fit in and seems to serve as a punching bag for the others. They take it so that they can be included. Is that what these people want for their children?[/quote]
