No Joke
December 20, 2010 11:53 pm

Bullying is No joke.
My son was bullied for 3 years starting in Grade 5.
We spent years going to councellors because he didnt want to go back to school and worse yet, he threated to kill himself.
He simply couldnt cope with the never ending harassment.
BH we called the bullies parents ourselves and it stopped our soun is now excelling in all facets of life. I cannot imagine my llife had he succumbed to the demons pushing him over the edge. Bullying MUST not be tolerated and must be dealt with head on and never made light of!!

If anyone knows details / accuracy of the following story please let me know:

There is a story where the parent of a child who was bullied had brought it up to the Rebbe, who then called the principle by telephone and said “what are you waiting for, do I myself have to come down and take care of things?

What about dealing with bully teachers???
December 20, 2010 11:05 pm

Teachers are sometimes the worst bullies. They can cause pain by talking mean, picking on a child, or worse – punishing a “korbon”. The child is helpless and destroyed. The parents have no choice but to live with it – the school will protect its own. And other children are taught to mimick the teacher and become bullys too.

these bullys grow up and become adult bullys. They use intimidation to step on others. They push the “meek” aside – beware if you are aidel these bullys will attack.

Eventually, they become the “machers” and community “leaders”.

to parents
December 20, 2010 7:55 pm

bullying has to be stopped
but
the sad truth is that there is a weakness in a child that attracts the bullying.
please take them for counseling in a way that the counselor knows how to strengthen them, feel good about themselves.
also,
parents:
strengthen yourselves, bc you are role modeling.

reality
December 20, 2010 6:42 pm

I can imagine the scores of parents reading this article and nodding, thinking Yup My kid was bullied. I bet every parent feels like their child has been the victim at some point. Will any parent come on here and say i think my child is the bully? How do i deal with this? Will there be tips at the lecture on how to deal with the bully itself and not just how to empower the victims? (which is extermly imp dont get me wrong. I just want to see some parents stop denying reality and face the fact that… Read more »

This could save lives!

even the frum kids
December 20, 2010 3:50 pm

Even frum kids can be bullies. My son was bullied until a very kind teacher said something to the boys in his class (he sent my son on an errand). Things improved after that. But still, why did he have to go through the pain of being bullied, at all?

its about time
December 20, 2010 12:16 pm

this has been an on going problem for many years, its sad that it took this long for people to wake up to the problems that occur within the community.
