All About Bullying

[foodandflights]

ensure that if ur child is being bullied, make sure not to guide them in the direction of attacking the bully back but instead know how to defend themselves physically and mentally

I find that bully behaviour is getting more rampant in Singapore, not just in schools but also among adults. There seem to be more and more people who think that giving way and being considerate means they are "losing out", and instead choose to adopt an aggressive stance. For example, when you signal to change lanes on the road, the car in the next lane suddenly speeds up and horns at you - is that really necessary? When adults all around display these sorts of aggressive behaviours, it’s no wonder our children start learning the same things.


I think we should help to protect our children from bullying behaviour by role modelling the right behaviours and attitudes in our own daily interactions. Encourage empathy and not selfish behaviour.

Oh dear! Janet, need to chit chat with yr girl to stand up for herself. Speak directly to the bully for her cowardly act that hurt yr girl & her feelings. Tell bully it’s not nice nor right to do coz all same sch/class & shld be frds & May end up doing projects or events together. Just tell her to say the teachers can tell if I’m bullied.

Then if everything fails, if u think yr girl can report the discipline master/mistress. Ano way is to hv a word with Form Teacher or Discipline Master/Mistress? I find it very effective when I go chat with staff. Give your girl a hug & one fr aunty here too. Every child is precious. Tell her we do not like her to be bullied.

her buddy now changed and talking bad. don't know what happened.
I told her to focus on her studies since it's just a few months to go.
will meet with her teacher to see what's going on after CNY.

Good for you. You’re your daughter’s guardian angel!

when in lower primary, dd cried on the spot as she was so embarrassed when one student make announcement of dd’s weight. I wouldn’t say it is bully as that gal may not know that it’s hurting the feeling. I told the teacher and let teacher settle and all is well I think.

i told my daughter many times…friends do not badmouth. if they are toxic, it’s better to stay MILES AWAY from them.

it’s just another few more months before N levels…i would rather she focuses on her studies. most important thing now is to take her anti-depressant regularly, so that it will kick in and boost her mood.

Years ago, my girl told me how a group of them was confronted by a mommy for not talking/playing with the daughter. Makes me wonder dunno who bully who.
