DD2 came home from pre-school yesterday with a HUGE bruise on her forehead.
The teacher hadn't noticed it straight away because she has a fringe but even with the fringe it was pretty impressive.
Apparently (though she wouldn't say in front of the teachers) one of other kids pushed her and she landed on her head.
when I spoke to her teacher the next day, he said that the boy in question was extremely violent though he has calmed down. He was in DD2's class before but he changed classes - I think that he reacted strongly against the male teacher. The school put a specialised teaching assistant with him during playtime to limit his violent behaviour. I believe the school is putting him through a behavioural programme of some sort.
Nevertheless, her teacher told me that DD2 is this boy's preferred target and that she is scared of him so when he comes out to play she tries to avoid him as much as possible.
DD2 is a bit timid and rather self contained. She does not really fight back and she doesn't go to the teacher if she has a problem. However she would often say that the boy pushed her though I dismissed it as rough play in the playground - feeling a bit guilty now though.
Whilst I am impressed that the school is doing so much to keep the boy in the education system despite his behavioural problems, I don't know what to do to help DD2. Though I think she is ok with agression from other kids but when this one kid who targets her attacks her she doesn't know what to do.
The teacher said he would speak with the teaching assistant to see if something happened. OH is for teaching the "little toad" a lesson.....How do I teach DD2 to react so that she doesn't become this child's whipping boy for the next few years.
