[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Op NEVER brought up ANYTHING about race. Very sad the conversation has devolved to this.

Op consider these options:

As a crime victim myself, I’d offer this as an opportunity to teach/reinforce some basic self-protection strategies.  Your kid, in less than six months, will be on his own.

1. Get him the Uber/Lyft on the way home a few days per week
2. Consider writing him a pass for early dismissal (15 min before end of school day
3. Consider alternate routes home
4. Consider having him volunteer with a teacher/athletic team/after school club and leave later in the day

Has there been any mediation or restorative justice work done with the other kid who chased him? Any counselors/parents involved?

I know a young person, in DC, who was slain when visiting his mom in his old neighborhood YEARS later over some ridiculous perceived beef. Tragic. I would want this resolved. If I perceived a lingering threat, I would consider identity change/moving. These sociopathic young people have long memories and nothing better to do than screw up someone's life.[/quote]
