She got tired of seeing other kids not giving her friend the "right-of-way", so she finally gave them the evil-eye. Now all the kids treat her with more respect.<br />It's nice to know my words don't always go in then out of my daughters' ears, ha!<br />BethAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5382816224610988438.post-29615684259234544832011-09-14T04:44:53.420-04:002011-09-14T04:44:53.420-04:00If you don't go after what you want, you'l...If you don't go after what you want, you'll never have it.

There's no way we can protect them completely, and we're not supposed to. So, it's nice to know there are others out there that can soften the blows that inevitable come to each of our children. It warmed my heart a little to know that you called the boy's mom to let her know the positive influence he had on your daughter.

He saw her crying at recess, and went over, sat by her, and asked what was wrong. He ended up playing with her at recess. When he told us, he acted like it was nothing, but I sure was impressed.Megannoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5382816224610988438.post-22667158531211032262011-09-10T15:23:59.855-04:002011-09-10T15:23:59.855-04:00I think it's great you called his mom.

He decided to make an impression by pointing out the "freak" wearing hearing protection. <br /><br />2 GRADE LEVELS turned and let him know that WAS NOT DONE. Without the teachers saying a word he got an education about autism and sensory overload. He puffed up refused to apologize. Over the next 2 days he figured out that no-one was going to talk with or play with a bully. <br /><br />He sincerely apologized to the boy and his brothers publicly. The other kids then started to play with new boy. If he lapsed into the bullying he was iced out till he apologized. Eventually he changed his ways.kherberthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03282935413300573346noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5382816224610988438.post-75942665797294606752011-09-10T08:45:22.553-04:002011-09-10T08:45:22.553-04:00I hope my son will grow up to be that kid.I hope my son will grow up to be that kid.Jenniferhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10459846935279525839noreply@blogger.com
