    Toochy i'm so sorry to hear your news. Big gentle hugs.

    The head called me in at hometime to tell me she had gotten to the bottom of it. Turns out DD had asked this boy if she could play and he said no. She walked away and he decided she could so he ran at her and then all the stuff happened. They were playing a very rough game. She has spoken to the boy and told him thats it's too rough to play like that with anyone.

    I told her about the trouble with the girl and she'll speak to her tomorrow.

    DD did say that she felt the girl in her class was laughing at her because her test marks are alway low. So head called them all in and just said that nobody is perfect and that it wasn't very nice to laugh at people, they all agreed, DD then told the girl in her class that is was because of her. So now this girl is away home in tears and DD will get crap this week for it, why can DD just say nothing. :mad:

    So now i don't know what to do??? The other school will ring in a couple of days.
    Sometimes it seems that the going is just too rough.
    And things go wrong no matter what I do.
    Now and then it seems that life is just too much.
    But you've got the love I need to see me through.
    :j :j

    vanilla I'm pleased that the head has gotten to the bottom of it all now, but I think that moving her to the other school sounds like the best bet anyway judging by the facilities etc that they have. Talk to DD and see what she would like to do.
    Enjoy the little things, for one day you may look back and realize they were the big things.

    I'm not sure i believe 100% what the head has said, DD still tells a slightly different story. The head say's this boy likes her yet they don't normal have anything to do with each other.
    As for the girl it's been going on months and even last year. There's a group 1 girl in DD's class and 3 girls in the year above. All these girls hang about after school together and then just torment DD at school. They all cover for each other when somethings been done. Then at youth club there as nice as pie because i'm there. DD has even told me she likes me being there because then there nice.:eek:

    I'm to see her teacher tomorrow and i'm gonna have a very long talk with her after dinner, she's already told me she wants to move so i'll see if she still feels the same.

    Dinner on i'm starving. :D
