(8,933 posts)have assemblies and tout their anti bullying policy and then do nothing about kids getting bullied. well, it's your word against theirs. how can you prove it when they purposely do it when the teachers aren't around so they don't get in trouble. And the other kids who are also bullying or at least don't want to risk being singled out themselves aren't going to say anything or at least say, yes it happened. it is frustrating when my kids are being picked on and the school does nothing. My daughter hit one of the kids bullying her, nevermind it was a 5th grader and she is a 9th grader.... I do understand WHY she did it.... she said she didn't even ask for help this time as no one ever does anything. I told her it is not acceptable to put your hands on another no matter what they do. Who is the one in trouble? I am confident that other kid isn't grounded.
