[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Does anyone think there is ANY chance OP will concede that her children need to shape up without pointing out what the other kids are doing?[/quote]

I think that there is some bullying going on with this topic. I think OP is upset that her child was hurt and is feeling defensive about what may have contributed. I think that those are normal feelings that probably should have been processed through before bringing the question to a forum- this one in particular.

I agree with another poster that it's not worthwhile to evaluate which is worse- the physical or the teasing. The fact is that both actions have short and long term consequences for kids. It's a little weird that OP doesn't see the issue  considering how many stories about bullying are in circulation.

[b]It's incredibly disheartening to hear adults (and I assume fellow parents) sound almost gleeful that a child was physically scared/frightened.[/b] [/quote]

I have to agree with this. I think OP is way off base and have posted to that effect but I am ashamed to be associated with some of these posts. Hoping someone will physically harm OP's children? Saying someone should call CPS because OP is an unfit mother? You people need to get ahold of yourselves.[/quote]
