oh deb - these bullies are real tough when they're "with a crowd." get them alone and they really "shrink and shrivel." lol.
i'm sure samantha will get thru dis with flying colors - it happened to me in st. johns too, until i stood up to "them" alone mind you - and then we became the "best of friends" afterwards.
it's just her higher self tryin to strengthen samantha's soul!

tommy love the way you handled it, the park slope way, lol!

Tommy Alioto wrote: Deb this is how I dealt with a similar situation. After my wife had complained to the principal on a few occasions and this kid was still bothering my daughter. I found out where the kid lived I went to his house and rang the bell. He answered the door and I asked to see his father. The father came to the door and I explain to him that his kid is harrassing my daughter and I know he was aware of what was going on because the principal had spoken to his wife. I told his father that every time his kid bothers my daughter is was going to come back to his house and kick his ass right in front of his kid. The kid never bothered my daughter again.

Deb.....I just wanted to add something to what Tommy said ..... I did the right thing first ....I made an incident report with the Principal 1st .....that someone cut her BEBE shirt in the back with scizzors. Then I made a 2nd report ....against the same 2 girls for trying to trip Nicole going down the stairs.....3rd time ....I made another report and had 3 of Nicole's friends write in their own words ...what was going on in the classroom......and last 2 more shirts were cut after all of this.......thats when I confronted the Mother with her Daughter outside of school. Festina is also right....Nicole became friends with this same girl ...and she was over my house the other day! Go figure!

So, go with your gut feeling.....on how serious Samantha's situation is.

AND FOR THE NEW ME

Suzie, I called the principle this morning and left a message. I want to find out if these kids parents will be called today. I only know one of them. The rest don't even live around here and they all take public transportation home. I can't even call the other kids on their cell phones and ask for their mother's because now we don't have the numbers.

OK HAVE TO DO SOME STUFF THIS AM SO

HERE IS THE BACK UP JOKE O'DAY

The Polite way to Pee

During one of her daily classes, a teacher trying to teach good manners, asked her students the following question:
"Michael, if you were on a date having dinner with a nice young lady, how would you tell her that you have to go to the bathroom?
" Michael said, "Just a minute I have to go pee." The teacher responded by saying, "That would be rude and impolite.
What about you Sherman, how would you say it?"
Sherman said , "I am sorry, but I really need to go to the bathroom. I'll be right back."
"That's better, but it's still not very nice to say the word bathroom at the dinner table.
And you, little Johnny, can you use your brain for once and show us your good manners?"
"I would say: Darling, may I please be excused for a moment? I have to shake hands with a very dear friend of mine,
whom I hope to introduce you to after dinner."
The teacher fainted...

FOR JANET
