Very proud of my sweet little girl Delaney. She told both my wife and I about an incident in class where one boy constantly teases and harrasses a boy who is quiet and has few friends. Well this "bully" decided to mess with quiet boy in front of Laney and her posse. The bully decided that it would be funny that after shy guy finished cutting stuff out for a class project he would help "trim" his clippings....more and more and in half....shy guy was visually upset about it and Laney told bully boy to cut it out. That evening Laney was very upset about this. I told her she really needed to tell the teacher on behalf of shy guy. Lee also sent an email to the teacher.
Yesterday Laney was called to the dean's office to recap what happened after they were told bully boy was now not allowed to go to the zoo trip. When speaking with the Dean she asked Laney if she was "strong" enough to face bully boy. She said "Yes" and the two sat in front of the dean as he recapped that he was only doing it because of his older brother's influence at home and thats why he was acting out (sounds like he heard his parents use this excuse). Laney didnt believe it either.
