I wish I was 11 again....

I swear if it wasnt against the law I would smack this 11 year old boy that is bullying my daughter upside the head then give him a few not so nice words on picking on other kids/girls... enough to make him cry home to mommy.

unbelievable that this happens in school (grade 6)....talked to the teacher after school after hearing this stuff from my kid when she got in the car. they are going to talk to the boy and tell him to stay away from her. if this continues....the principle is next to hear from me.

im so worried that if all this continues and then moves onto next year i wont have as much "teacher" support since she will be moving to the Intermediate school (jr high).

i also worry about her self confidence. she is obsessed with the worry about this kid always picking on her and following her. i wish she could just tell him off or tell him something to the effect that he must really like her since he follows her around so much....something to embarrass him.

im just sick over all this. hate to see her effected by this. with that going on it doesnt help her other problems she has and it trickles down to her performance with school. she got in trouble today after all this happened and now she is being punished for that here at home.

*sigh* i just dont know how to help her and give her the confidence to just ignore this little shit that likes to pick on girls..
