So for the last month, my daughter has come home every day telling me about a boy who picks on her daily. Until two weeks ago it was just verbal abuse. It progressed from a kid pushing her face into the snow while she was climbing a snowpile to getting her feet stomped on to getting slapped around by him while getting dressed for recess. Today she ran to the car shouting to me about how he waited until her arms were halfway in her jacket to attack her from behind and punch her in the stomach and back while smashing her head into her cubby. Yesterday, she managed to fight him off when he came after her on the playground and she was beaming when she told me that when he sicced his friend on her, he wanted nothing to do with it and he said "no way, she knows karate." She tells me that her teacher is never around and she just sits at her desk ignoring them while they get dressed and that she was told that she was tattling and to tell the stuffed tiger about it when the little bastard slapped her around. After the slapping incident, I immediately went to talk to her teacher and asked her to straighten the boy out. Apparently she's all talk, or maybe lying about even doing anything, and I had to go back into the school again today. Today's attack was especially vicious, even more so because they are only in Kindergarten, and has me considering calling the police. I know where he learned to attack from behind because he and his "mother" (if you can even call her that) live in the trailer park adjacent to our house and they are all nothing but trouble. They and their family are the reason I carry a gun inside my house and have modified my bathrobe to conceal a full size handgun. I have booted his sister from my garage many times. They've caused close to $600 damage to my vehicles and boat since I moved here. I know who to blame as well because everyone else in that trailer park has jobs, or works infrequently and there are police at their house at least twice a week. I've even caught her bully calling my dog from across the field so his mother can call the police about a "vicious loose animal." (Completely untrue, he is a friendly black lab who will only attack if I command it, which I have done once and stated it in another thread here.)
The only reason that anything was done today is because I picked my venue and made sure other parents waiting for pickup heard me but I know from personal history with this district that nothing will be done if they think they can just brush me off. (Last year she was sexually assaulted and completely covered in spit by a boy who belongs in a mental hospital, all while the bus driver ignored it. I talked to the principal of the school and he also tried to brush me off. Only my bringing it up in front of other parents got anything going, and his "punishment" was to draw a picture for her. Ironically, that 9 year old boy was using MMA on a then 4 year old girl, and I found out where he trained and got him booted.)
What would you do? Have you ever had to deal with this? The thing that really stand out is the apparent lack of complete disrespect he has towards women. I have heard his mouth on several occasions and from what my daughter is telling me, his only victims are girls. I didn't even have to guess that his father is a no show. That's painfully obvious, no pun intended.
