Mama Bear time
Apr. 19th, 2005 09:05 pmBunny and I talked this evening.
She's not just taking a little crap at school (a little being defined as a random vicious comment that everyone gets). She's being actively assaulted on a daily basis. Some little bitch thinks it's funny to push her down the stairs of the gym.
So, she's keeping a log of what happens, when and who is behind her when she gets shoved. Also on the efforts she makes to avoid it. And Monday, she's going to the gym teacher with it. "I'm getting pushed down the steps. Could you keep an eye on things when we come in and see if you can catch them in the act?"
Should the gym teacher (who is a good sort) not act, we move up the chain calmly and cleanly, until I am standing in the principal's office yelling about assault law-suits.
On an upside, we got her pen and ink and some sample alphabets she likes. She's practicing.

My grandmother went with me the next day and stood outside the school doors and when I pointed out the girls collared them bodily and dragged them to the Principal's office where she let loose. Never got bothered again.
