I have noticed that when parents are told that their child is bullying other children, the parents either don't seem to care or something and they just let their children continue to torment others? Why do these parents do anything? If my child was a bully I would find out what was bothering her and do something about it, I wouldn't want my child to be that way!! What is wrong with this world?

This is for racer-My 9 year old is being bullied daily, parents have been told and so has the school,since it has not stopped at all-it has actually escalated-I know nothing is being done about it.

What about the principal of the school? Have you addressed it to him/her? Be consistent in your letter and express how horrible it feels and it should be banned.
Talk to your child's teacher and suggest to her, that she talks with her students about such a horrible behaviour problem.
If you need to go the extra-mile, present it in the next PTA meeting. Parents need to take matters as serious as this into their hearts and do something about it.
The information , needs to be out in everybodys brain.
To bully, is harmful and an emotional distress to the affected kids.
I wish you good luck!

In some cases the parents are trying but they are unsuccessful. Sometimes they are not trying because they have given up, and sometimes they do not know what to do, and they do not want to ask for help. In some cases, they truely don't think their child did anything wrong.
I agree with you that the bully situation needs to be handled. I was bullied as a child. My son occationally gets bullied. I work on the situation from my end for sure, but there is only so much I can do. I just know from expeirance that it is not something that is delt with overnight. I wish it were that simple, but it is not.

Bullying is inherited. So the child bullies other children because they got a gene that causes bullying in one of their parent's. Anyway some try but they could sometimes get bullied by their kids and don't know what to do with their kids.

I believe that children who are bullies are insecure. They are insecure because their parents have failed them in some or many ways.
Maybe the parents are bullies themselves. Isn't bullying something that gets nipped when they are toddlers?

what makes you think they do nothing? how do you know what they do at home? parents of bullies get just as angry and frustrated as those who are bullied. many parents do there best and even more but, to no avail. it's easy to judge when you aren't in the situation. what if you did everything you could think of and your child were still nasty?my guess is you'd be beside yourself not knowing what to do. no one wants their child that way. i'll grant you, there are some who don't care about their kids. that's a really sad thing but many do care and are at their wits end. look at the whole picture before you judge.

alot of the time they do not believe that their child is being a bully and deny it, they believe that their child couldnt be mean or disrespectful or they just ignore it
