    I believe his parents have been informed. I will be ringing J’s school tomorrow to find out exactly what action has been taken. If they don’t inform his parents we’ll have to rethink whether we report him to the police I guess.

    Dian was pulled out of maths this morning to have a chat to the deputy principal and primary coordinator (same person who is dealing with the other bullying) and it appears that J may be brought to the school with a teacher to apologise to her.

    I have to admit, I’m not sure I’m keen on that. Maybe if I was present? I don’t know.

    Why can’t kids just be nice to each other???

    because evil reigns over earth…sadly.
    i think you should be present. i mean, what good is it going to do to have a 15 year old kid apologize to someone in front of an adult? it won’t make dian feel better, it’ll make her feel embarassed and ridiculous. i used to get mean letters thrown at me in high school, and i finally told the teacher.
    granted, when the kid who did it was brought to me to apologize, he didnt’ do it again…

    kid should be kicked off the school bus.
