I am looking for advice on dealing with school bullying and my daughter, who is in grade 3!! I am a mom with 5 kids and this is the first time I have had to deal with this!! My daughter doesn't even want to go into the classroom...the teacher is dealing with it the right way, but how do I encourage my daughter to handle it the right way?

I wish I could help you. But

I wish I could help you. But I never had this problem when my boys were in school!
Will share it though, to see if anyone else has some words of wisdom

I have been down this road

I have been down this road and it can be frustrating. Make sure the Principle knows, there should be action on his/her part. You said the teacher was getting on these kids but that may not be enough. I had to resort to getting a little nasty with the parents/school telling them it would stop or I would be seeking legal advice. There should be zero tolerance to this kind of behavior. They wanted to have my daughter change classes but she liked her teacher. I told the Principle that my daughter is not going to be punished by loosing a favorite teacher and told them to remove the kids that would not behave to another class. The parents of the bullying kids were just as bad. One ended up being expelled and had to go too another school which was a big hassle for the parents. But they did nothing so they suffered the consequences. My daughter did not want to go to school and became depressed. I was very worried about her. I did not want to be one of those statistics were my child took extreme measure to escape the bullying.

I know this can be a tough situation to be in. Children have enough stress they do not need to be hounded at school. Being in 3rd grade can be tough but it doesn't get any easier. One thought though, traditionally taught Karate may be good for her. A dojo/studio that teaches the philosophy of martial arts, not just the moves.

Good Luck

Hi, From what I understand,

Hi, From what I understand, little boys do such things when they like a little girl, hitting and so on. Would have been a good thing to know when I was a little girl.

However, you may want to check this Anti-Bullying Campaign Guide out here:

Hope that helps...
