My aunt told me that her 6 year old daughter is getting bullied at school (she's in grade 1.) One of the girls in her class told the entire class not to talk to her and nobody spoke with her for the rest of the day. She was devastated and wasn't able to concentrate on her homework all day. This happened a few times, until she told the teacher. Even though the kid has been reported, the problem can always come back, I know this from experience. I am very close with my cousin and hearing this story brought back bad memories from my childhood, when I used to get bullied. I don't want her to go through what I went through. I'm an adult now and have gotten over it, but the memories are still there. How can I help her through this difficult time?

I think you should tell her that she's a good kid, and that she'll face a lot of challenges in her life.
i've been bullied alot when i was a kid, i beleive it made me stronger.
figure a way to make her learn from this situation instead of getting devastated.

Tell your aunt to call the school board if the principal won't do anything about it. If the problem really persists I would transfer schools if I had to. There is no need for this youngster to be traumatized by the cruelty of other kids. It sounds pretty bad, maybe your aunt should just let her transfer schools. She will have a fresh start and not have to worry about the other kids bugging her. My friend had the same problem and after she transferred her kids to another school they did fine. They later realized the problem was that they had moved into a new area and one school had a bunch of welfare kids (the first school they went to) and the school they were transferred to was primarily made up of children from middle-class. The kids did fine there. It's sad but true..kids react to the way they are brought up. Although I feel bad for welfare kids I know that they are more prone to acting out because of their dysfunctional homes and why should my friends kids be subjected to that when they were brought up properly. Switch schools. maybe it's the kids she's going to school with. Maybe they're trailer trash kids. Good Luck. I hope the little girl ends up happy in school. Maybe ask her if she'd like to switch schools.

Wow, that's terrible. you're fortunate which you recognize that that is occurring, because of the fact oftentimes circumstances, babies & youngsters might somewhat die than tell their moms and dads they are being bullied. you could advance the subject including your moms and dads that that is not suited. in the event that they don't conform to do some thing, take it to the college. that's the college's interest to make specific that babies, somewhat at that age, have a secure atmosphere. communicate including your daughter's instructor approximately it; she'll shop a greater helpful eye out to be conscious any misbehaving on his area. If that isn't the case, tell your daughter that she could tell the instructor if she is getting forced by using him; bodily OR emotionally. in the experience that your daughter maintains to get bullied like this, it could have extreme effects on her self esteem, ect, and you do not choose that. i'm fourteen, and that i'm unable to bear in mind being bullied in any respect in undemanding college; no person became into. that's the way it's going to be.

OMG What school does she got to. My two twin cousins are getting bullied and their only in the 1st grade. The best thing you could do is tell the pricipal of that school. Or if you have somebody that rides their bus, tell them to keep a look out for the mean bullies.

Maybe have your Aunt setup some play dates with some girls in her class (minus the bully of course) just to get around the bullies influence on others.

As you know, she will need a shoulder to lean on and to cry on. I don't think there is much you can do other than that. Be sure and support her. I'm glad that the kid has been reported. It seems a shame that it is happening at such a young age. Maybe if it continues they can switch schools for her sake. Keep your chin up.

I have been made fun of from 4-7th grade. Tell her to pick just one friend. talk with that friend and then more friends will come. If that don't work tell her to tell that girl to stop.

Have her bring something cool, yet invaluable to get other kids attention. I t may sound like a cheap shot, but kids are friendly to people who have what they want. She could bring in a bag of cookies or something.
