My dd is 6. She is in 1st grade. There is a girl in her class that has repeatedly hit her, and verbally attacked her. I have gone to the teacher 3 times, as my child is quite upset by this, and I feel she didnt really resolve the issue. Today my husband I spoke to the principal. She sounded like she was passing the buck and asking my child what she did to warrant that kind of reaction from the other child. Im not saing my kid is perfect.. beleive me! But, no child should be hit at school and made to feel unsafe. So the principal told us she ahs to go through the "proper channels" to deal with this.She also said "but they are friends" even though my child is afraid of this other kid. My child is not the only one this other girl picks on like this.
Here is where it gets tough, the other girls mom is a teacher at the school, and her and my husband coach our kids soccer team together.
Did i over react by going to the principal?
