I soon saw how horrid she was, she bullied a girl terrible and I have to admit to standing by for a while, I suppose because it made me feel special to be in "Her gang"
One day I stood up to her for the way she was and I got a biff in the eye for my trouble.
It was a very lonely time for me, her and her friends teased me and the other kids treated me like a pariah.
The girl that she bullied must have felt sorry for me because we soon became firm friends and have been ever since.
Lesson learned.
More Abbey-ness please.
This really took me by surprise. Insight into a little bit of your life that is.
Id like more.

No-body seems to have the time in schools today to do this.
If kids are left to get away with it, i think they go on to bully in adult life. They end up sad individuals.
I know when there has been problem kids in my husbands school, if the kids get a one on one, it often emerges that they have a sense of insecurity.
For anyone who has been mercilessly bullied, it does scar for life. They think "Why Me?"
We are trying to show this little fella that being a bully will not help him later on in life.He is "special needs" & thinks that because he has gotten his own way most of his life that this will always happen.
He is finding it hard being at school & not being the centre of attention 24/7.
We think we are slowly getting there,we hope we are anyway.
He is a lovely little boy:-4:-4
