I knew it was going to happen

Just got a call from the school to pick up skid3.

Apparently she told the wrong girl that her looks weren't up to snuff and the girl stuffed her in a trash can and skid3 is emotionally upset.

DH is working and can't leave.
So the school called me.
My questions:

Is she hurt?
Bleeding?
Broken bones?

No? Send her back to class. Advise her this is a life lesson and she gets to live with it since she is not listening to parental advice/dictates. Skid3 gets more upset, gets on the phone with me and my advice to her was not to piss the same girl off during lunch. Bad enough getting shoved into an empty trash can in the girls room. Imagine getting stuffed into a full one in the lunch room and NO I would not pick her up because her mouth wrote a check her a$$ couldn't cash.

Suck it up butter cup.

I love that you refused to pick her up!! Bullying should never be tolerated and I am glad someone stood up to her. What did the principal and your DH say about leaving her there??

DH was texting me while I was on the phone with the school warning the school was calling and DO NOT pick the kid up unless she was hurt. Let her sit the day out.

It wasn't the principal that called it was the school nurse. Apparently skid3 went there after the incident as she was 'too anxious and emotionally upset' to go to class (where is that eye rolling icon when you need it?)

See this is one of my big fears.

Some of the moronic things that come out of SS's mouth sometimes makes me wonder when he will be the subject of ridicule by his peers. "Are we Saturday today?". I kid you not, he asked this once....IN CLASS. I swear it is only a matter of time before someone in high school says "SS, are you a [CENSORED]?!"

Skid3 fell of the social saddle and you told her to get back on it. I think it's the best thing any parent could do.

Bullet I'm with you there. Geez why can't we focus on what is just in the damn blog?

Anyway I think open and her DJ handled it just perfectly. The kid needed to be knocked down a few pegs. Better to learn it now then later. I wished my ss17 would have gotten knocked down a few pegs long time ago bit thar didn't happen. He is a lot like opaque SD. He thinks he is the shit and no one is above him or better then him.

Life lesson, that's absolutley correct. Good for you, time for SD to learn somebody out there is always a little bit, bigger, meaner and badder than you. I'm sure the next time she get's ready to pick on someone this will cross her mind and she'll think twice of it.

My SD is a bully and spent the summer lobbying to switch HS her senior year. It didn't happen apparently...Same situation, when you treat people like crap, you have no friends....

Your Sd got what she deserved and good for you for not picking her up. Maybe she will learn to shut up....

MY SD17 writes those kinda checks all the time and then tries to tell the teenage girls at her school that "fights are beneath her" til she got pegged in the head with the volley ball a couple times, then she just cowtailed down like the little bitch shit starter she is

I'm waiting for the day when stb 15 SD is put in her place. Of course she is HUGE and mannish for her age and has that loudmouth bullying personality like her father. She has been described on FB by her FRIENDS as "ketchup drinking, jaw punching and firey"

Nice.

This method usually put an end to bullying back in the day. If a kid was bullying another one, they'd settle it amongst themselves. And that was the end of that. Usually the incident was forgotten a few days later. Something about "fight your own battles." But since the advent of over-litigious attorneys and $$$$ behind it, well common sense has been quite literally thrown out the window.

This puts me in mind of when I had to "rescue" the youngest skid because he was literally showboating and acting "weird" on a public playground. The neighbourhood kids SENSED that there was something "not right" about Guilty Daddy's youngest "angel." And were proceeding to whip his butt for being totally annoying (on purpose). So I took him away from the scene knowing that Guilty Daddy is a spineless wuss and believes in "my kid, right or wrong."

Kudos to biodad/DH for letting his kid learn a lesson in "internal monologue."

*thinks back to being 16*

Yeah, if a girl had commented on my looks, I'd have probably upended her into a trashcan as well... Good for that girl! Tell your skid that at least she didn't decide to give her a swirly and see how good she looks after that.
