my daughter and i got in an argurment and i said things that were hurtful. she is getting a voice, which is good, but i wish i had not said what i did, i was upset and saddenned by the treatment she is getting in middle
school,a girl called her a lesbain,so i wanted to remind her that she had an option to go to a different middle
school, yet she denied it, regardless of the atmosphere of this
school. she said she has friends here, well i said, where? now i feel so bad, because i think it was hurtful. i don;t know how to manage or help her with the things that these kids are saying and doing to one another. if i could i would take her out ,and put her in a christian
school, but i don't have the money. i feel so sad that she has to put up with this, and even sadder that i wasn't there for her. i just get so angry. when i hear what these kids call her. when i was that age, i was a bit mean, because i had three brothers, and learned how to fight, but she just takes it. the principal, just seems overwhelmed in the
school, so i don't even call her. ps, nothing against lesbains, it is just that it was said to hurt her. by a kid that is always being very mean to her.

take it up with the school guidance counselor. they have to start doing something to stop the bullying. there have been enough tragedies in schools to let them know what happens when it is ignored. also look into counseling for your daughter, it will help give her the tools she needs to deal with the bullying
