A. is having some issues at school with a "mean girl". This little girl who I will refer to from now on as "Heather". Well, Heather has been picking on my little girl. So, we've been having conversations about bullying and how to stick up for yourself. I called my mom to help because my first inclination is to tell A. to punch her in the throat. That way, you get it out in first grade and no one messes with you for the next 7 years. I mean she gets suspended for what, three days. No biggie.
Well, I know that my mom will probably have more constructive advice. I talked to J. about it. He doesn't understand "girl world" or "woman world". He thinks I need to call the mom and tell her that her daughter is a shit. Can't do that. I suggested that he call the dad and take care of it in "man" words.
All this time I never thought to talk to C. about it. He sat quietly and didn't give his input until last night. He turned to his sister and said, "Listen, this is what you do. If she is being mean to you, you look her in the face, yell PAAAAAAAAAA and turn your whole body."
Who knew it was that simple?
