Related: About this forumMom Forces Bullying Daughter To Wear Thrift Store Clothes As Punishment
MURRAY, Utah Putting a stop to bullying in schools can be a difficult task for teachers, but one woman from Murray, who found out her daughter was relentlessly teasing another student, decided to teach her a lesson by giving her a taste of her own medicine.
She really needs to know that this had such an effect on someone elses life, said the mother, Ally, whose last name we have omitted to protect her daughter Kaylees privacy.
Ally is not the Kaylees biological mother. She has been in a long term relationship with the girls father for several years. The girls father, who has custody of the child, was present during and gave permission for this interview, and he said Ally and Kaylee share a mother-daughter relationship.
Wednesday, Ally received an email from Kaylees teacher explaining that she had been bullying another student because of how she dressed. The harassment had been taking place for the last three weeks, and according to the teacher, the student no longer wanted to come to school.

I think the mother handled the situation quite well. However, why did the school wait 3 weeks

to let the parents know about their daughter's behavior? IMO, they should have been informed before it had gone on that long.

unkind words.
Shoulda been a week! And it should have happened much closer to the actual bullying....
