Bullying of ANY kind MUST be stopped. You as his parent need to take the bull by the horns and go to the School Board. The Principal,Counsellors,his Teacher,,,if you have exhausted these Avenues and nothing has helped then YOU go straight to the parents of these little miscreants. Call and set up an appointment to speak with them. Or just go to their house and set the record straight...let them know they are responsible for their child and you will be retaining an Attorney and suing them for the trouble their child is causing your child...the Police will not interfere in school-yard bullying...LET THESE PARENTS KNOW YOU ARE SERIOUS...THEY WILL GET THEIR CHILD IN LINE OR FACE FINANCIAL LOSS BY HAVING TO RETAIN THEIR OWN ATTORNEY TO FIGHT THESE CHARGES...Don't let theses kids make your child miserable!
That's the problem with schools today. 0 tolerance.... Unfortunately teachers aren't going to much help, you have to teach your kid how to deal with it properly.
the school should put a stop to it right away.or go to the law!
If he has been bullied by people, I STRONGLY SUGGEST
that you contact school administrators about this matter.
See if you can find out who is bullying your
kid & why.
If the school won't do anything about it, I suggest that
if they don't you tell them that you will take this matter
up with a lawyer and the courts and threaten to file a
lawsuit about this matter.
If you don't want to go this route the next best option(it
would be a bit expensive) is to hire a private
investigator and find out exactly who is bullying and
teasing your child & why.
If you find out contact the parents of this child.
If the parents won't do anything about this take it
up with either the school administrators or file a
lawsuit against the parents of this child that is causing
your own child many problems.
That is my advice for you.

not that i am saying public schools are bad....but is your child in a public school? if so...that's definitely a given that he'd get pushed around...
but if he's not...then soryr. but i've been in the private schools
for a long time....i'm a senior now, but i've only gone to public schools 3 times each for a year all throughout school years...
each time i've been bullied.
the teachers need to know tihs. the bullies parents
need to be notified and it must be stopped
or take him out of there and put him in a good school.
this is what causes people to bring guns into the schools
because of bullying.
put him in a karate class for sure. maybe even boxing.
this will help him take out his anger and whatnot.
get him in a private therapy sessions, they tend to be
a lot more caring and can do more for people.
hope this helps
