Have you heard kids on a bus? My daughter has called me a few times from the bus. It’s terrible! One bus driver can’t control X amount kids. I even said something to the principal.
Many schools are pro bully I’ve noticed. Talk to a lawyer and see if you can sue the school for not stepping in and taking action

How old is your child? It’s never too early to talk to her about bullying, and its an unfortunate part of schooling. Go over some ideas for her to deal with it when someone calls her a bad name, or how to ignore it. If the school isn’t going to do anything about it, she will need to know what to do if that happens again. Maybe see if she can carpool with another student to drop off?
It happens and it will happen again. Hate to be the bearer of bad news but kids are mean snd they do stuff like this unfortunately
Tell the school? Not much to do. Kids are mean…
if the school will not or cannot do anything try pulling your child out of school and do home schooling
Tell her to sit by the bus driver.

Teach your daughter words are words. Brush them off. Ignore it. When words get to a certain extent then I would tell the school ect. As far as the kicking. Tell her to stick up for herself and cause a scene to make him look like a fool. She has to learn self defense. Otherwise sadly now a days bullying won’t stop.

Home school her if u think that word is horrible honey kids today think FU is a normal thing to say this world is much different than it was yrs ago
You are not overreacting, this behavior is considered acceptable from boys who have mom’s who don’t care how their son treats girls, it’s toxic and your child doesn’t deserve to be spoken to in that way, schools don’t care so you need to get her to record his behavior as proof and get a lawyer
Teach her next time to turn around and hit them in the face. Then be like “this B just beat your ass. Want another?” Lmfaooo!! Jk jk
find out who the parent is n kindly go to the parent n than if nothing is done show ur momma bear in you
You must teach your child to cope with these things. They will happen in life. Teach her HOW TO REACT vs sheltering. She wont learn from that. Remember, our goal as parents is to send them out confident/ready for life. Sheltering this much teaches her nothing about life

Your daughter needs to stand up for herself…. If a child called my daughter a bitch she would probably laugh because she knows words are just that. Bully’s thrive from getting negative attention so you making a big deal over this is only going to make it worse in my experience of bullies. Also would be a lot easier if everyone knew the ages and the whole situation of what happened.
When my daughter comes to me because her younger brother says something that hurts her feelings- the first thing I always ask her is, “Is it true?” For instance: “Bubba said he doesn’t like me.” “Is it true? Do you really think Bubba doesn’t like you? Or do you think he was just saying that because he was mad or trying to make you mad?”
Teach her to believe in herself. She WILL be called that again- and more. It’s important that she is confident in herself to let it roll off. I had a guy call me a stup¡d (unt last night. Is it true? Nope. So I didn’t let it bother me. Sometimes people, even people you’re close to, will say thing to you JUST to hurt you- not because they’re true.

I’ve had this happen a few times. My kid was in kindergarten and someone called him a bitch and the n word. I went right up to the kid and asked him to repeat to me what he’s calling my kid. I then asked him where his mom was and he took off and never bothered my kid. My middle son had a kid taking his cellphone from his backpack and hooking him by his neck from behind. I told my son to firmly tell him to stop, the kid began again the next day so I went down to the bus stop and told the little boy if he puts his hands on my child again or his belonging ill put my hands on him. Ended that issue right there.

My son’s school emailed me bc my son called a group of girls the b word and were throwing rocks at them. My son said the girls started making fun of him (and they do on a regular basis) and then they threw the first rock. No one backed my son(again he said everyone was picking on him). School didn’t believe him, but his crying at home about hating school and never wanting to go back is not normal for him. Later that same day, one of the bully girls shows up at my doorstep, at our house with attitude. So I emailed the school and told them that he is OBVIOUSLY being bullied bc I witnessed it at my home. A meeting later between kids and teacher it is supposedly “fixed”. We will see.

Kids learn those words from their home or from their friends who learned them at home. When my daughter was 6 she was mad at her brother and called him the F word on her blackboard. I went ballistic and asked why she would use that word, and she said she saw it on the side of a building, and didn’t know how to spell PIG! I taught her!

Teach your child not to react every time someone calls her a name, just to ignore those types, she will be better off, if she reacts that’s what they are looking for, you can’t feed this type of negative behavior! It will not be the last time she is called a name, and the boy did no physical harm!! The school, I’m sure is super busy dealing with ’ bigger’ things!! There is not any way to control what others do…but you can control how you react to what others say, or do!!

Talk to the bus driver and have her seat changed? Kids are assholes and stuff like that is always going to happen…. That’s the world we live in now.

That stuff is what being a parent is about…teaching your kids to live and function in this shitty world.

We were taught to grow skin. Sticks and stones would break our bones, but names would never hurt us. It was free speech back in the day. Today, parents have a choice, either tolerate it, or move on to a new school or home school. The nuns would whoop your kid’s butts with a ruler or some other way to make a point. Public schools used the paddle for disobeying. But now spare the rod, you got spoiled children which is evident by all the rude whiney adults in the world today.

Chill out and teach your daughter that you can’t control what others do or say, you can only control how you react. You can teach her to assert herself in the moment. Teach her to stand up and say loudly "stop kicking my seat! " "Stop saying bad words.’ “Leave me alone.” Etc. Heck, teach her to fight back even.

The bus should have cameras on it, if the school department doesn’t do anything about it then teach your daughter to defend herself because bullying only gets worse, never better. Last year a little girl (my daughter was only in kindergarten) was bullying her and refused to let her in the bathroom stall my daughter peed herself she was so scared and when she finally got into the stall the little girl held the door shut and wouldn’t let her out, she had to crawl under the the stall to get out. That whole time the teacher never noticed how long my daughter was missing in her classroom and “didn’t notice” she came back to the class crying and soaked in urine… which she had to sit in the whole day till she came home. The school department tried to shame me and TOLD ME that I need to work on better communication skills with my daughter so if it happens again (can you believe they said if it happens again?) that she’d be more willing to tell her teacher. My response was “No I’ll tell you what’s really gonna happen you’re gonna make sure their never in the same classroom again and IF this happens again my daughter will not only not be punished but rewarded if she defends herself and hits that girl back” 
Kids are committing suicide now a days because bullying has become so severe. I’m the type of mom that will take my daughter out for ice-cream if she gets suspended for hitting someone who was bullying her

Unchecked bullying destroys children. Woke school boards, administrations, staff, and teachers turn a blind eye and are responsible fir the outcomes. Adolescent, teen, and young adult suicides and school shootings result from unchecked bullying. Every child deserves to go to school and not fear their bullying peers.

Is there a bus monitor? Talk to them! Otherwise talk to the driver so he can make a general announcement about that kind of behavior to all the kids.
My husband talked to the bus driver once and went inside the bus for a couple of seconds and told all the kids that he didn’t want to know of kids bullying each other and especially picking on the little ones in the bus and then the driver told the kids that if he heard a single complain about their behavior again he was going to talk to those kids parents. It helped a lot….

Teach her to defend herself. When my daughter was 3 or 4 she rode the bus. It was only for preschool kids. She came home with a scrape down her face. Said a boy did it. I looked at the bus monitor and she said she moved the boy. I told her I didn’t ever want him by her again. The next evening he was sitting beside her. She told me he wouldn’t leave her alone so she kicked him and got in trouble. This was two weeks after school started. I told the bus driver she wasn’t riding anymore. I took my kids to school and picked them up. We moved at the end of the year. I love the school they are at now. But I still take them and pick them up. Thank goodness I only live about 4 mins from the school.

If this is a “one and done” situation, shake it off and talk your daughter. If she’s being bullied and the school won’t do anything about it, go to the principal’s office in person and talk to them. If they still won’t do anything, advise them your next stop is at the police station, and actually go there. Whichever it winds up being, get your daughter enrolled into some self-protection classes, or some kind of martial arts classes. Some friends of mine had a shy daughter who was being bullied, and she just received her black belt. She’s outgoing, confident, and those bullies have left her alone for years. They know to not mess with Madi because she’s a complete bad ass now. Good luck to you and your daughter.
talk to the parents of the child in question and if that dont work then go and talk to principle urself demand action
In for a world of hurt come junior high. Bitch was the nicest word I remember being used
Hop on the bus and handle business
Nothing happens. I was bullied by practically a whole grade of students in middle school. Teachers saw me getting hit in class and did nothing. My dad had a talk with the principle, which made it somewhat worse. I guess the principle told the kids to stop, so then I was a snitch. Homeschooling may be best if you are able.
I’ve always told my kids that if someone is picking on them and they tell them to stop but they keep it up… jack their jaw. Bullies sometimes need a taste of their own medicine

There’s not a whole lot anyone at school will do for name calling unfortunately. If there was a altercation involved then they would take it more seriously. It’s Messed up but it’s the way school work now today.
Your gonna have to teach her to ignore people who say mean things to her. Or move her into online schooling or homeschooling. The name calling is going to just get worse the older she gets.
Tell your child to talk to the bus driver some times there’s nothing a parent can do if it’s not a bad situation that is… judging from the way kids are these days sadly it probably won’t be last time…not that that makes it ok but first tell your child to tell the bus driver and if that doesn’t help anything that’s when you talk to bus driver or principal
Teach your child to not care about others opinions or the words they say.
I was bullied in school too. I would just agree with everything they said or laugh at their jokes.
I was semi goth but also a country girl so some days I had on cowboy boots and jeans. Some days it was plaid skirts and tons of dark makeup.
If I got joked for any of it I just went harder with it. Then agreed with the person talking about me.
Even as an adult if I get called a B I agree and giggle about it…
We can’t control what other people do but we can learn to control our emotions toward it…

I mean. All she’s gotta do is ask the bus driver to switch seats and they probably don’t have the proof unless they are sitting up front… it’s gonna happen… I mean you can probably just become a bus driver and follow your daughter everywhere… Or you can just take your kid off the bus… My son was being bullied by a girl a grade older, my.son told her to stop multiple times and finally apparently flicked her off so her parents took her off the bus… The dad told my son he wasn’t allowed on the street by their house like they pay.for the street, yeah shit doesn’t fly with me, I went over and had words, he told me.to get off his street, told him I see where his daughter gets the bullying behavior… He started talking words and said his daughter isn’t a bully.,… Guess who was kicked outta school not long after for bullying …
If being called a B is the worst she’s gotten be glad. She could be facing the world as a f-ing ‘N’.
