All About Bullying

what should i do? fetched my p3 girl from sch today and she told me her classmates, 1 sitting on her left, n 1 on her right, punched her in the face. both were females. she wanted to stand up and tell the teacher, this incident happened in class, but the girl hold her down and tell her not to.
And these were the two girls that broke her correction tape, eraser… drew on her hand…
feedback to the teacher, and he said he will talk to them. so thats it? im so worried! -
Request for your girl to change seats. It shouldn’t be too difficult for the teacher. If the two students next to her are very mischievous, he should place them further apart.
Some students are bold enough to stand up for themselves. I have one student who hits back at the boys who try to bully her. I don’t condone getting into fights, but whenever the teacher’s disciplinary measures fail, she manages to prevent the bullies from getting to her using her own methods. She also scolds the bullies on behalf of the teacher.
For students who are not so bold, however, the next best alternative is to tell the teacher to let them sit further apart and ask the bullied students to make more friends in class. In the school, there is strength in numbers. Bullies normally pick on those who have fewer friends. -
thank you for the reply!
my child learnt wushu in sch since p1, i thought she would try to defense herself, but she didnt.
i just emailed the teacher regarding the change of seat, hopes he responds fast. -
fiie:
Punch in the face is a big no-no. I will talk to the teacher personally, discuss the situation, and change the seats AND group. Some kids tend to act up when grouped together and a sharp teacher will handle it by breaking up the seating arrangement, or changing classes. It's not enough talking to the group because the girls will ostracize her further or use other bullying tactics.what should i do? fetched my p3 girl from sch today and she told me her classmates, 1 sitting on her left, n 1 on her right, punched her in the face. both were females. she wanted to stand up and tell the teacher, this incident happened in class, but the girl hold her down and tell her not to.

Keep communicating with your child. If possible, make an effort to pick her up at school and say hi to the other two girls. Show your face, greet them by name and introduce yourself and go. Sometimes that in itself is enough deterrent. If it happens again, email teacher, cc principal.
One of our family friends works in the police force. After his P2 daughter had her things stolen repeatedly, he went to the school personally, had a talk and left his name card with the teacher. The teacher showed it to the whole class and gave stern warning. No more stealing afterwards. Another incident when a teacher kept rapping the girl's head for a few months. He went to school and the teacher quaked and apologized within 5min. If you are in the right, be polite but not apologetic in expecting actions. -

I think it is best to sign up your kids with karate or teach them some self-defense. It is not to fight with others but at least your child could learn to defend himself.
sure or not?
Later the bully try to beat him up I'm the end your kids beat the bully up and then the bully acts innocent go tell teacher.
Your kid will be in trouble.

I remember in my primary school my friends and I just tease each other for fun, then we shrug it off
Mild teasing can be just playing, unless the teasing gets really harsh like \"You stupid pig\".
Physical is another problem. I feel physical is more serious. Should complain to the school more about it.
If the school really refuses to take action, you might want to transfer your child into another school. -
Hi fellow parents!
I asked my daughter why she didn’t hit back, she said the teacher told them it was wrong to do so.
The teacher has since changed her seat and she’s happier now, sitting with a very polite nice girl.
I hope things get better! -
Teasing is ok if kept at a minimum

this is terrible!
P1 boy punched in the stomach by bullies (P2) at Concord Primary:-
http://www.edvantage.com.sg/edvantage/news/news/946156/Pri_1_boy_punched_in_belly_by_bullies.html
THIS seven-year-old has probably had the worst introduction to school in Singapore this year.
It has been only six weeks but he's already been bullied on no less than three occasions.
First, the Primary 1 pupil was dragged out of the canteen by four older schoolmates, taken to a corner of the school field and punched in the stomach by two of them last Thursday. His assailants are Pri 2 pupils just a year older than him.
Then, on Monday, Kenny (not his real name) fell after he was tripped by a classmate and bruised the side of his face.
On Wednesday, he went home with part of his fringe snipped off.

By Wednesday night, his parents decided that they had had enough.
They made a police report the next day about the bullying incidents and saw the principal of Concord Primary in Choa Chu Kang for the third time in two weeks.
The father, Mr Peh Kok Keong, 32, said: \"The incidents have been happening once too often and despite our complaints, nothing seems to be done.\"
