Yesterday was such a challenge on my heart strings!!

This little boy really needs some saving, and the school is aware and although they couldn’t tell me details what they did try to say made it clear that they are at ties with what they can do with what they have. They asked me to write up a statement and even went so far as asking me any details I may know off hand of the family and his situation because we live in the same community. I got the impression that they have tried to help him as well but could only take it so far.

He was very apologetic, cried and asked if he would go to jail. He explained literally while crying and practically pleading to my daughter and I in the principals off not to be mad at him and to still be his best friend. You could tell he isn’t loved or at least doesn’t know that he is.

The teacher explained that not only in the class but the school in general (the other kids) don’t accept him and he has had many challenges through out the year so far with being bullied and picked on for his clothes etc. But that my Madison has been his little protector. She laughed a little about it because Madison is a peanut but it seems she sticks up for him… telling other kids not to make fun and even sits with him sometimes instead of her friends so he is not alone.

I think as a mother I can understand that kids will be kids and they fool around, it seems he must like her… and more as a protector, a friend, or even a sibling and I believe him when he says he didn’t mean to hurt her ever and never would because when he was shown the bruises on Madies arms he was hurt for her.

It’s so sad. Madison explained that she would tell him to stop when he would pinch her but never in a way that he would understand that he was hurting… she explained she didn’t want to scare him off so that he thought she didn’t want to be his friend anymore because it would make him sad…

Kids are so funny, I am so glad I can talk to her because I saw that little boy yesterday and I know that no one will explain things to him the way I explain things to my child.
