SOMEONE has got to stop kids from tormenting other kids at school. Name calling does hurt and it does affect other kids. In her not she wrote "I was tired of hurting and being called fat. I couldn't take it anymore"..think of that next time you hear your child calling some other child a name. I had to pull my oldest son because of kids tormenting..he's 6'5 and could of knocked the head off of any kid but i'd raised him to be nice..so no matter how often kids teased him..he was still nice..but late at night i'd hear him cying soflty in his room. So i pulled him and home schooled him. I have a daugther that has to see a counseler because kids tease her because she is a tomboy and dresses like one..she didn't "fit in" with the other girls..and the names they called her wern't what you may think is bad but it was enough to drop her self esteem..she went from being reaally confident to thinking she was ugly..and i've shown pics she and my son are gorgeous..but look what mean kids can do to one child..Parents I beg you to do what you can to stop your children from teasing. I know if it was mine they would think twice of doing it again. I dont' condone it or just say "oh well kids just tease" |
Thank you for sharing that with us.
Name calling hurts, and some children can be cruel.
What ever happend to If you don't have anything nice to say,
Don't say anything at all. All children should feel safe at school,
Safe from their Classmates & Teachers
