My 12 yr old son was beaten up today in the boys locker room in a county school. A boy shoved him as hard as he could into the lockers. Then he was pinned down while the bully punched him in the face 3 times. My son now has a huge knot and bruise on his left cheek. 1 month ago,in the locker room, somebody pushed him and he tripped over the bench, hitting his head on the lockers causing him to need 2 staples. We also have had to buy 5 new locks for his gym locker because sombody kept breaking them.
The bully has been punished with in school suspension. Which I find ridiculous because he still gets credit for his work. Big whoop!! I informed the principal that I expected adult supervision in the locker room for here on out. I was told that wouldn't be possible since the adult could be in a situation of getting accused of something inappropiate. So I told him to put 2 adults in there. He stated he didn't have enough staff for that to happen. They want to protect their own asses but not protect my sons. Its apparant that the kids know that they can get away with more unsupervised. I am absolutely flabbergasted. Oh, and by the way, nobody from the school called us about it. I know that my emotions are high right now, but if the brat does it again, I'll make sure he leaves the school in handcuffs.
