Daughter being bullied help?

In my experience girls can be worse than boys. Best to keep all the incriminating evidence just in case. These things have a habit of escalating if allowed to continue unchallenged.

Surprise surprise! The tweet that one of the bullies posted which read "omg what's your fucking problem" with 4 of those punch face symbols you have on an Iphone. This has now mysteriously been deleted.


But we have the evidence on my daughter's phone with a screen shot.

I had a couple of phone calls over my youngest when she was at school. It was alleged that she'd given him and her a smack and the school had given her a talking to about this and that. In all instances she'd had been standing up for herself against children trying to impose their will on her. She displayed this characteristic from an early age but a bully will always plead the innocent when deeds are revealed.
You'd do well to keep all the evidence and inform school CW. It takes strong character to stand up to bullies and not run with the pack, from what you say I guess this may be difficult for your daughter.
You mention the size of the girls involved and the prettiness of your daughter, I suspect the root of the problem is exactly that?

Sorry to hear about your daughter being bulled Culcheth.

As most have already said contact the school. They should have an anti-bullying policy, which may even be on line on the schools web page - might be worth having a read of it if you can.

I know you and your wife will be upset but I'd advice you to certainly talk and support your daughter - which you clearly are doing - but not to over react to the situation - at least initially - as kids, even at 16, can quickly fall out and just as quickly become best friends again.

My daughter got frozen out by her two best mates over standing up for another kid that was being bullied (name calling) by the other two and it really upset her - the three girls up to that time were inseperable.

I was really disapointed that the mums of the other two girls didn't seem to care my daughter had been dumped by them - one of the mums used to drive the girls to school and the other brought them back - so they both knew right away that something must have happened.

I was really proud of my daughter for standing up and doing something she knew was the right thing to do, when following the crowd would have been so much easier - even though she knew it wouldn't make her popular with the others.

Anyway a few months later things were back to normal of sorts again - they were friends once more but they were never as close again.

So what I'm trying to say is that yes the bullying has to stop but maybe doing something like involving the police at this stage may be to soon and might isolate your daughter even more right now.

What happed with my daughter was that another girl she knew befreinded her and included my daughter into her circle of friends and everything seem to work out from then on.

Hope everything works out well for your girl too.
