Need some help...male input & parents...please.

He brought it to me so I know it bothered him.  His feelings were hurt a few weeks ago when all of a sudden this kid wasn't his friend anymore...my thoughts then were "***** him" but I did say that sometimes friendships end but you will always know who your true friends are. 

His concern with getting into it with the kid was the consequences with the school/his teacher.  Jordan thinks she hung the moon and he really tries to please her. 

Either way, I don't want this to become a trend where he becomes a pushover and other kids take advantage of it because they know he isn't going to do anything. 

LOL she hung the moon. Yeah my daughter thinks her teacher is the best too. If I say something that doesn't match her teacher then I am automatically wrong and her teacher is right. I mean man don't I get any bonus points for being the mamma. Guess not.

Ok back to Jordan I think you did the right thing. My mother told me young be more concerned about how I am going to feel than what the school thinks. I will handle the school. Thankfully I never had any major issues in school. But I did get teased and to this day I wish I had of stood up for myself.

TAW,

On some real ass shid you need to go ahead and tell him that no one has the right to EVER touch him and he needs to go ahead and "dress him up." This moment will set in stone for the rest of his life that he has to defend himself when someone invades his space. My parents told me if you get whooped you was gonna get a whooping. I'm not telling you to tell him that but he does need to understand part of being a man is standing up for yourself. He's a child I know but he's a man in training....tell your son to put hands on him and thats it.

He touch you....then you touch him and we not talking about no pushing!!! So if he pushes him your son should punch him.

Let it be known that lil homie ain't going and he'll set a precedent to all the other lil kids....


He can either learn to run and hide and cry to his mommy or rise to the occasion and defend himself.

That must be a Southern thing--my mom always told us..."Get your ass whooped, and come home to another ass whooping."  We were always the shortest and usually littlest kids in the class so they liked to test the limits. 

I don't want to be that crazy but I do want him to know you don't have to take shiot from people.

Right this down Nate--I'm agreeing with you.  It might snow tonight.

TAW...its all good shawty and its always love w/ me. Tell him to aim for his face when he hit him....I think all lil boys should know how to punch and thats how I punish them w/ push ups and sit ups. Then its 4 of them so they always ruff housing w/ each other. Those my dudes and they know they gotta hold it down and do what they gotta do or Uncle Dee will break they damn neck!

I was raised in a family with all girls. My Mom was a 'keeper of the peace' - my Dad was a 'rough-neck, step on your neck, spit in your eye kinda PREACHER-man!. 

Daddy used to say when someone punched/pushed us. Girls, Give them fair warning - The Bible says to turn the other cheek, all ya'll only got 2.  Warn them, if they do it again, then IT'S ON!!!!"  

We would say just what Daddy told us and then "Consider yourself warned. That was ONCE"  If they pushed/shoved us again, it was SOooooo ON!!!!   The funniest part was that we were farm-girls and baled hay, broke horses, plowed acres of land, etc.  - those city kids got more than one beat down but ....it only took once.  Plus, Daddy was the Principal and he made that rule across the board - boys & girls alike.

We embarassed my Mamma _many_ times but Daddy says to this day that "My babies only got 2 cheeks - they're just doing what the Bible says".      The truth be told, unfortunately, we would antagonize the boys and make them hit us just so we could WHOOP their tails!  

This is the SAME thing I tell our children nowdays, it sure sounds FUNNY when a little one says to a big one "Consider yourself warned, that was ONCE, do it again & see what happens to you....!?!?!!?!" 

See I got to a point where I wasn't even w/ the warning....talk out ya way to me and it was going down......

This is a good approach, thanks!

I PERSONALLY THINK THAT FOR A 6 YEAR OLD, HE MAY NOT WANT TO FIGHT NOW BECAUSE IT ISN'T HIS NATURE, SO LET HIM BE HIMSELF. I USED TO BE A BULLY IN ELEMENTARY AND AT SOME POINT IT HAD TO END. 

 I THINK THAT WE HAVE TO REMEMBER THAT WHATEVER WE TELL OUR KIDS AT THAT AGE WILL MOLD THEM INTO THE PERON THEY  WILL BE LATER AND YOU DON'T WANT TO TURN HIM FROM LAID BACK TO OFF THE CHAIN.  I AGREE HE SHOULDN'T LET SOME ONE PUNK HIM THOUGH I WOULD SPEAK WITH THE TEACHER OR PARENTS AT THIS POINT CAUSE 6 YR OLDS WILL START PLAYING AGAIN WITH THE SAME PERSON THAT THEY HAD A PROBLEM WITH A MONTH AGO.

I also think she shouldn't do that....let the kids handle it the best way they can. Kids have a fogetful memory and they'll argue one minute and play the next. (i've seen it w/ my own two eyes b/c of my bad a$$ nephews)
