Bully problems at school?

My son is in first grade and has been complaining for a while about a child at school bothering him. He is on an IEP for PDD-NOS (autism spectrum disorder) and his behavior is really starting to upset his father and I.



He keeps telling us that this child is threatening to kill him and his parents and now all he talks about and wants to talk about is death. He comes home with huge bruises and hematomas and not one teacher or faculty member has contacted us, even though he claims he reported the injuries to his teacher.



We are very concerned and really don't know what to do at this point. We have an advocate and he is contacting the school board, but really I don't think they will do much since no faculty has reported it.



What do I need to do at this point to make sure this other child leaves my son alone? How can we prove that this child is bullying my son?Bully problems at school?
change schools. or have your son tell you who it is and go to the head of schools in your county. or call police. kids are so mean these days. school has really changed. i am so sorry about this, it all falls back on the parenting and that kid must not be taught right. you son should not be treated bad.Bully problems at school?
I would set up a meeting with the teacher and the other child's parents. That kind of behavior has to stop and I would do whatever it takes to make sure it does! I was a victim of bullying for 4 years and I'm still scarred emotionally 12 years later.Bully problems at school?
I am sorry to hear this. I know if it were me I would tell the teacher pull up a chair, I'm coming in. If no chair I'll stand. Best of luck to you. God bless
After having watched my sister deal ineffectively with this in regards to my nephew and an effective battle by a parent at my child's school, I can offer some advice.



First, document everything -- every bruise, every occurrence your child relates. If the injuries are obvious, take pictures.



Have you contacted the school to request a meeting? If not, do so now. In all likelihood, you will not be allowed to request that the offending child or his parent/guardian be present. You may request, but most school districts will refuse as a way of protecting privacy of all parties involved. Insist that something be done to protect your child. Document all your calls requesting a meeting, inform those present at the meeting that you are documenting, and include details of your meeting in your file.



At the conclusion of the meeting, write a letter to your district office informing them of the abuse your child is suffering at school and the outcome of your meeting. Include what the school plans to do to ensure the safety of your child and request the districts help in seeing the plan is followed. Send a copy to the school and keep a copy for your file.



If the bullying does not stop, call your district office and request a meeting. Insist that they step in to help. Threaten legal action if you have to and follow through if necessary.
