My son was attacked, but doing fine. He picks up his little brother from school. While he was waiting for his little brother to come out with his class, he was talking to a former classmate (a girl). There was another former classmate with him(a boy) and my son said that while he was talking to her, the other former classmate(the boy) was just talking very negative to the girl for no apparent reason. My son was jusy conversating with her. After my son picked up his little brother, they we're walking home with the negative talking boy. Two boys that knew the girl had ran towards my son and the negative talking boy trying to fight them. My son only received a sore lip, but doing fine. I guess that she told the two boys that the negative talking boy was talking about her and they we're trying to include to fight my son because they didn't know which one was talking about her. Should I tell the school about the incident ? I believe my son is afraid to talk about it to someone else.

you should tell the school about it you don't want them to come and attack again or worse attack the little brother. tell him not to hang out with the negative talker any more.

As a concerned parent it is expected that u would want to or should tell the school, however in reality, it only makes the situation worse, as these boys who fought ur son obviously have issues and are aggressive people. They will then turn other students against ur son and so on, the follow-on effect. Just talk to him about it, and make sure if they do give him trouble again, then make sure u go to the school, and tell them there has been a history of tention between ur son and the trouble-makers.

Let it go the girl will resolve it she was definitely there and u weren't mind ur business unless it gets worse , stay out of kids problems. By the way it isn't ur sons responsibility to pick up his little brother it is urs. If u had been there none of this would have happened in the first place right? Sorry to be so blunt but u asked i we respond. Ur son needs to learn to protect himself and not have "mommy" step in at every little battle he has. Let him grow up and stop being so overly protective unless like I said it escalates on it's own.

These days we just don't have parents who assume the responsibility that is their and way too many single or even married moms have their older children do what it's their job to do. Take resposibility for those u bring into this world through no fault of the older siblings so that older sibling doesn't end up resenting u like I resented my Mother. I've been there and don't that now it's ur turn.

Had a similar incident with one of my sons. I called the cops and let them deal with it. They came back after talking to the parents of the other kid. They said they didn't want to be that kid based on the way the Mom reacted. They said they didn't think there would be any more problems and there weren't.

Yes tell the school! The school can try to get to the truth of everything & contact the parents. Every parents should know this has happened & have the oppertunity to address the situation. If it were one of my kids I certainly would want to know. That behavior can't go unaddressed. Good luck to you & your son.

I would talk to the schoolbut make sure that it doesnot lead to more trouble for your son. It is pathetic, that your son has to go thru this. My son had the same thing happen to him. I pressed charges with his family, but the boys Mom was so upset, she came to my home with her bully son, and she cried, begged and pleaded to me to drop the charges. Her son had to apologise to me and my son, and nothing ever happened after that. Good luck to you and your child.

it is always good to report such incidents to the proper school authorities as soon as possible, your son is a little hesitate to report it which is understable because he does not want to labeled as a "ratty" kind of person. so report it yourself and alson tell the proper authorities to also protect your son for retaliation by not divulging who reported such incident.

I think that it should be reported to the police and let them handle this problem.
