Re: Things that make you go "uh?"
I sympathise with you Willow. My son is only nine and was harassed by some unsavoury characters in school. These kids used to hit, push, kick, and generally just pick on him when the teachers weren't looking. I've always told my kids the thing my parents told me, if someone hits you hit them back but my son isn't a sneaky kid if he's going to lamp someone he just does whoever is watching which got him into a lot of trouble with the teachers. After a massive confrontation with a mother that thought it was fine to have a slanging match infront of the children, which resorted in her own child being in floods of tears, I withdrew my son and changed his school on the advice of his Head Mistress this wasn't her expelling him or getting rid of him being the problem it was the other childs mother she was frightened of!!
