Mama Bear

I need to blog about this or else I am going to explode and people...it isn't going to be pretty!!!  ha ha So...Ben has a really sweet friend. I am so impressed with this little boy's family. His Mom is so sweet, his Dad is a hard worker and they have the same standards that we do. They aren't a part of our church, which doesn't matter to me, but because they have such high standards I assumed they were.  These people have been there to help since we moved here. Well there is a little girl in his class that doesn't like this little boy and goes out of her way to harass him. That isn't my biggest problem, my issue is that this little girl's Mom is also harassing a 7yr old little boy!!!!


This Mom helps out at the school, she helps in the classroom and out in the playground during lunch time. Since her daughter has decided she doesn't like Ben's friend there has been so much going on with this Mom. She yells at the little boy, knocked down his sand castle, tells the kids on the playground not to play with him because he is a bad boy, yells at other kids who don't listen to her and play with him anyways (my son included), blocks this boy's Mom's car in at the school and yells and harasses her. Once after yelling at the boy during lunch time she went in the class right after lunch to help out and he was so scared by her he wet himself. I am sorry but this is as 7yr old little boy how in the world is any of this OK?


You are probably wondering what the parents have done to stop this right? As I said before his Mom is so sweet and timid and she takes the harassment. She did talk to the Principal and the school says they have sent this woman emails and have done all they can do. I am sorry but I send my kids to school to learn and be protected from psychos like this. This is absolutely unacceptable behavior from a school that says they don't allow bullying to happen. This is a grown adult bullying a 7yr old and it needs to stop...period. 


This lady should be glad that she hasn't come across me (I volunteer at the school as well) because Mama Bear would come out and she won't like what I have to say. This little boy and the other kids she has yelled at and intimidated aren't my cubs but they are children that need to be protecting. Some of you may think that I am hearing just one side of the story,from my friend,but I do have another source...my son. The next time he comes home and tells me that he got yelled at by this woman I am marching myself down to that school and there will be hell to pay. 


I wish that schools didn't cater to the people with money and actually put their foot down and protect these kids. 


This isn't the most up-beat, positive post but this is something that is weighing heavily on my heart. I guess what I can do is keep praying for this little boy and his family and be there to support them. I hope that all of you will remember that no matter the differences that we have in the world we were commanded to " Love they neighbor as thyself" and if we can't do this then what good are we teaching our children and doing in the world?
