Go Marydean!!! Poor H doesnt understand that she shouldnt have to make her escape around at the back exit to avoid the bully. School is meant to be a fun & safe environment! Would they have told the bully's mother about the incident? I would be horrifed as a mother to hear that my child is a bully. Good on you for marching up to the school, I would have done the exact same thing. I was bullied by a boy in primary school and it went on for ages, it even got physical, he hit me a few times. I was too scared to tell anyone but mum picked up on it when I didnt want to go to school anymore. The teachers did nothing much so mum took matters into her own hands and had a word with him herself, and also approached his bogan parents who were horrible people. That worked in the end, but I still remember it vividly to this day, was terrible. Glad you are onto it quick smart MD.
