The burden of change should NOT be placed on the victim. Too often, it is. This is a serious enough case that we need to pay attention to the victim's psychological healing. If he wants to come back to the same school, see his friends and classmates, see his teachers, he SHOULD! The perpetrator needs to leave, and the perp's family needs to get legal consequences.


No one's placing the blame on the victim. The mom isn't the victim. She is simultaneously suing the school she thinks is so unsafe while fighting to get her son back in. If you can't see the irony in that...The girl hasn't been back since the incident nor will she be. He isn't innocent based on witness testimonies and he was a bully in his own right. Is he still a victim? Yes. No one's denying that. But also-what if the other kids at school don't feel safe around him? There are so many things that you don't know.

That’s so unfortunate. I wish him a complete recovery. All the victim-blaming needs to stop. It’s his school, why shouldn’t he get to return? If mom is going after the principal, there’s likely a reason.

Low income family perhaps? Her options may be limited by poverty.

She may not have transportation to take him and other kids to another school as its on you to transport. They should be held accountable.


The point is, she can't think the school is that unsafe if she's willing to send her son right back in.

Show me the negligence. Paramedics were called. They fired the PE teacher. What more do you want?

Does anyone know how Lenny is doing? And if the girl faced any consequences?
