Yeah, trust me. I wish I could do homeschooling.
I feel bad. But with our situation…it’s impossible.
Thank you for your prayers. They are greatly appreciated.

What DuskyJewel said!!! I’m so sorry your dd is going through this. I pray that the principal can get this to stop. Praying!Self-defense classes. I mean it. If she knows how to defend herself and how to neutralize an attacker long enough to get away, she won’t be afraid.
And just explain that all of you were obligated to go to the school when it seemed there were drugs involved. That could not be changed. And say, “When people get embarrassed, sometimes it makes them angry and they lash out. This girl would have done this to someone eventually, regardless of anything you did.”
Tell the school about the threats of violence, and inform them that if your daughter is physically attacked, the time for dealing with it in school has passed, the police will be called and battery charges filed.
Sorry about all this!

I had a feeling this might result in bullying.
Tell your daughter to do her best to avoid the girl. It would be a good idea for your daughter to stay close to her friends while at school until this whole thing blows over.
Your daughter needs to nip this thing in the bud. She can’t show any fear because this bully will only take advantage of that. Even though it will be hard, she has to stand up for herself! The only way to beat a bully is by fighting fire with fire. Most bullies are weak, cowardly people who can’t take any retaliation. The best thing your daughter can do is try her best to avoid and ignore this girl. If the girl begins to get violent, then your daughter has to defend herself. Tell your daughter never to back down.
Tell your daughter to hit first if she feels threatened or if the girl makes any violent motions towards her. Don’t give the girl a chance to hurt your daughter. Your daughter must prevent end the fight before it even gets a chance to start.
You are in my prayers.

I would contact a karate/martial arts studio and ask if they would give your dd a leason in self defense. Explain that she is being bullied because she reported drug use, and that you just want her to know how to get away from this other girl. If they don’t have child classes ask if they would teach your husband or another adult you know (not you at 39 wks pg!) and then have them teach dd. You could also contact a Y or abuse shelter as they would have resources too.
IMHO all women/teenage girls should know a few basic self defense moves. Although this does come from someone whose father loves karate!

Well, the odd thing is that a little before this all got started, dh mentioned to me that since she is getting older he wanted to show her karate or self-defense. He knows self-defense and some karate. They started training about, I think, 2 weeks ago. He has started her also on some physical workouts like push-ups so she can build a little muscle and is instructing her on some moves of self-defense but like he said it’s for her to defend herself and not to go around bullying people herself. So I am hoping this gives dd some confidence. The only problem is that since they just started ‘training’ she is not yet confident. If the father/daughter doesn’t work out then I will definitely look into some classes. The only problem is that I’ve looked into them in the past and they are very expensive! But I do agree that any woman or girl should have some knowledge/skill in defending herself.
I really want to thank all of you for your support and attention to this dilema. I also want to thank you for your prayers.

I hope the Father/Daughter training works out well. I was bullied around the same age and my dad taught me a lot. I never used it but always felt good knowing I could at least get away. And hanging out with Dad was always fun too!

Yeah that’s what I’m hoping that we can get two positives out of this dad/daughter training. Bonding/hanging out time and learning/training time.I hope the Father/Daughter training works out well.
