Dan Give me a break people. It's this garbage that makes real problems worse. Let's stop trying to play hero, and just teach.

SueZan Butler Wight I teach four and five year olds in Pre-K and have had the
same problem this year. 2 boys couldn't help but be
verbally and physically mean to another boy in the class.
My first week at school we talked all about respect,
friendship, kindness and sharing. But these boys needed
more I guess. (I know the feeling you mean when the

"Eye rolling @ another: Classifying glaring and eye rolling as bullying draws attention from the true bullying that does occur in schools." That was printed within the comments about bullying in this article. I think it bears repeating. Children are sensitive, it's true, as are many adults. If I received an eye roll it would irritate me-b...See More

I was bullied by my Principal, guidance counselor and reading specialist as well as two teachers. It was horrible! They tried to undermine me with parents, double checked all of my test scores, watched through the window of my classroom, interviewed kids, and I could go on. They were never able to get anywhere with it but it hurt so badly. I would ...See More

Terri I am sorry that happened to you. I hope you were able to move on to a place that you felt supported. It must have hurt a lot.

Professional bullies

by Anon

The professionals in the school are sometimes bigger bullies than the children bullies. A child came up to me one day and told me that his teacher told them not to speak to me when the see me.

If you are telling the truth.. alert the media!! The child of a SUPREME COURT JUSTICE acting like this will get their attention. But I don't believe this and I am calling "troll" on you.

My administrator know about the bullying at my school because she is a part of it. Every week as I wall throughout the halls of my school there is a different teacher trying to bump into me in the hallway whereas other teachers see it happens but they refuses to say anything about it. I move aside so as not to get bumped as other teachers look on. I am sure that another teacher will try it next week. You may ask yourself why don't you report it to the principal....the principal is well aware of what is going on at this school because she is a part of it. My principal is waiting for me to do something drastic like swing on one of the teachers' so that she would have a reason to get rid of me. She placed a para in my class that report every word that I say with a mistruth correlation connection. I have reported to the principal that the para was not doing her job many time and for some reason the principal could care less. I adore my school because of the diversity of students...I adore my students parents and I refuse to transfer because of the bullies that are chain locking the school.
