MrHanky Posted May 23, 2007 Share Posted May 23, 2007 Yer always hacks me off when I pick my little lad up from nursery and I find out that one particular kid has been pushing Tom around. He even hit him with a toy car once. Im not allowed to teach Tom the uppercut so I just have to tell him to stand his ground and tell the other kid off if he does it again How bad do i feel after todays incident, i went to pick up my 17month daughter from nursery today and when i got there she came running and asked for my keys to play with while i spoke to the people there any way next think i know she is sat there crying her lil heart out because some other lil fat kid has taken the keys off her, i don't know where these thoughts came from but i just wanted to yell at this kid to make her cry that was my princess she upset and i wanted revenge, luckily i kept my gob shut but i feel bad for contemplating shouting.

Snooze Posted May 24, 2007 Share Posted May 24, 2007 Whilst I understand the real feelings of protectiveness that you get (my lad is off to nursery for the first time in a couple of weeks), in my opinion you'll serve your daughter much better in the long run by trying to teach her that the correct course of action if someone takes something off of her without permission is to find someone in authority (either yourselves as parents or the nursery staff) and tell them what has happened. It's also a great opportunity to teach her why taking other peoples' stuff is wrong too. I hate to say it but I believe that, in general, kids who are mildly bullied (obviously not the extreme cases, like the one that killed himself a couple of weeks ago) actually turn out to be more successful, better and happier adults than those who are the bullies. I mean, it's obviously preferable for them to be neither bully OR victim, but I think I will actually be more annoyed if my son turns out to be a bully than if he gets bullied himself!

Supragal Posted May 24, 2007 Share Posted May 24, 2007 I have to say that if I see a sweet kid crying it breaks my heart but it's all part of growing up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
penguin Posted May 24, 2007 Share Posted May 24, 2007 know what you mean mate, some lil tosser had been bullying my lil pwincess for over 4 years - she only told me a few weeks ago because i asked she said she had been telling her teachers but they just didnt take any notice - so i went to pick her up from school and gave the lil ..... a warning.

I really dread this kind of thing happening. Did you speak to the teachers yourself? It really irks me that they seem to take no interest, although I guess mostly it's a problem that they're not allowed to do anything to the bullies anyway!

MrHanky Posted May 24, 2007 Share Posted May 24, 2007 I know what you mean. My first thought when I found Tom was being hit and stuff was to tell Tom to smack this kid (would be easy as Tom is massive for his age), but then I thought about it and told him to just tell him off or let Helen know about it. I will probably teach him to defend himself as he gets older but try also teach him about how wrong it is to pick on others. He's a really good boy anyway so im sure there will be no problems. I was very much the same as a kid, very placid and avoid fighting at all costs. But if I did have no other choice then I would beat the crap out of the other kid. This parenting thing is trickier than I thought it would be what with trying to instill morals, politeness and generally what is right and wrong etc Whilst I understand the real feelings of protectiveness that you get (my lad is off to nursery for the first time in a couple of weeks), in my opinion you'll serve your daughter much better in the long run by trying to teach her that the correct course of action if someone takes something off of her without permission is to find someone in authority (either yourselves as parents or the nursery staff) and tell them what has happened.

Supragal Posted May 24, 2007 Share Posted May 24, 2007 Maybe it's so common place unless it gets to a certain level it's best to let it run it's course? As adults I would like to think that a teachers perception is a lot more accurate and real world than that of a 4 year old... lets face it, they over react. A lot. Kids are mean, that's just how they are. You will only ever hear one side of it. I remember my mates kid in a right state because "someone was picking on them" turns out they bloomin started it!!!! Kept it well quiet though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Babe Posted May 26, 2007 Share Posted May 26, 2007 Told my Sprog when she was in Nursery if the 'bully' was smaller than her then go tell - if they were bigger then thump the bugger back! Probably wrong but she never had any problems after that. Mind you, she's starting school in Hertfordshire in September and has a thick Woollyback accent, so she's gonna get called a Scouser coz they won't know the difference down there. Poor kid... won't know anyone either! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kittyclaws Posted May 26, 2007 Share Posted May 26, 2007 just been having barmy with wife as im teaching my girl to pinch and runaway that way she wont be seen:) Thats so wrong, you should be ashamed. Teach her to kick them in the nads then run away know what you mean mate, some lil tosser had been bullying my lil pwincess for over 4 years - she only told me a few weeks ago because i asked she said she had been telling her teachers but they just didnt take any notice - so i went to pick her up from school and gave the lil ..... a warning. One of our close friends has 5 kids, all of which are cracking kids, very polite etc. one of them was bullied at school and the teachers didn't do much in stopping it, so the father who is about 6'5" tall went round to house where the kids who were doing the bullying lived (a nightmare family as it turns out) and told their dad " If my little girl comes home again and tells me that she has been beaten up by your kids again, I will be back round, and I'll beat the shit out of you" as it turns out, the bullying stopped straight away.
