Hunny I just went through this with my daughter. She had a girl at daycare hitting her she is 4 and the other girl is 5. I asked my girl if the teacher is around and she said no she never is when it happens. Now I talked to the provider and she said it's not a problem and that kids will be kids and she will keep her eye out... Okay so my baby is coming home every nite crying and not wanting to go there and this.. this and that. Now I don't condone violence but something had to be done because after talking to the provider twice and meeting with both kids it was still happening. So I told my baby that if she hit u again hit her back then run to the teacher and tell her what happened. Obviously she would never see this go down. So my baby fought back and that girl never hit her again. My girl has made a name from herself that she is not gonna be picked on. and the older kid has moved on to another poor kid. I asked my girl what happened and she said now the girl is hitting other kids. But not her. Yes I told my daughter if the teacher is not there to defend herself.

and to answer ? yes! they should tell you if something happened your baby coming home all sracted up that's messed up obviously they are not watching these kids good enough. "My opinion only". If you brought your child to school and he/she had cuts and bruises they want an explanation right? Same thing They should have a class room attendant also.

yes i think you should be made aware by an adult.

this was happening to my 6 yr old on the bus. almost everyday he'd come home and tell me so&so hit him. i talked to the bus driver and she basically didnt care. So one morning we were outside waiting for the bus and the bully is at the bus stop. so i said to my son very loudly if anyone hits you today you beat the snot out of them. Now my son wouldn't really do that he's a bit sensitive but that kid hasn't touched him since.

I am in the classroom of a pre-k class of 4 year olds. Unfortunately, some children are bullies. No child should be allowed to hit another child. The teacher has classroom rules. Everyday she goes over them and they include " You do not touch other peoples children". Knowing who the bullies are we watch them very closely to anticipate and seperate the bullies inorder to protect the other children. If the teacher has to many in the class and no help it is almost impossible to see everything. Since the teacher's actions have not resolved the problem- go to the principal, suprintendant, school committee,on up to the mayor. Your child should not have to go to school in fear. Bad experiences can turn a child into a bully and give them an "I hate school attitude". We know that can change a child's whole life. Threaten to send a family member to class everyday to make sure your child is safe and do it if you need to. Bullying will become high priority. Take pictures of any injury and let the police know also. Make sure your child is aware that you are going to put a stop to this.

Here's what I say you do... tell the teacher up front, "look, if there are EVER any issues, with anybody hurting eachother in class, please let me know... i want to know the whole story ahead of time, before i talk about it with my daughter....." If she doesn't cooperate, you've got some pretty good reason to pull her out, or request a different teacher...
