Sheesh Rebelgirl, I told you that some parents would not listen and think their child is innocent, same thing happened to me with Markus my oldest son, What happened was he got punched in the stomach by two 6th graders when he was in 4th grade on the bus, Markus got off the bus in tears, and told me what had happened, Right away I phoned the school and the transportation, The principal said that they will take care of it the first thing in the morning and would want Markus to pointed out the two 6th graders. The following morning, Markus pointed out two students right after they all got off the bus, while the principal waited outside at the front of the school for bus number 4 to arrive, which that would be Markus's bus. Then the two other students were taken to the office and got suspended for 3 days and if they do it again they would not allow to ride the bus anymore, and would be required to have a parents or adult to drop them off and pick up from school. I was so thrill to hear how all this had turned out for the better,
Until then, one of the boys mother disagree with the punishment that her son was suspended for beating someone up, She came to school and wanted to set up a meeting with me, the principal, and her because she felt that her son was frame for something he did not do.
The meeting was set up, I believe two days later, The boy's mother, the principal, the bus driver, and I were at the meeting. The principal let the mother speak first, and she went on about how her son is so innocent that he would never hurt a fly, and felt that her son was frame because of his color of skin. I was like whoaaaaaaa!!
If color of the skin was the issue, then Markus wouldn't be have friends who are black. The color of skin has nothing to do with anything! It's the action that her son did to my son.
So then, the bus driver spoke and said that she was the driver of the bus and that she had several witness who said who was hitting whom, and stated that Markus was very upset, She had to order two bully up front seats after dropping Markus off. It shut the mother up after-all, She had nothing else to say other than that her son is just being a boy. It sure shows to me that she doesn't care about her son's action, what he did was wrong. But, whatever :roll: I'm just glad that it was taken care of and he wasn't bothered anymore on the bus until Jordan came along. This year, Jordan was bullied by a female student who is in 6th grade. What's with the 6 graders??!! Are they acting like they are all big, strong and think they can beat up someone smaller than them?! :|
