Help!! My kindergartner was dragged in school

don't put up with bullying, that's what this is. if you can't get the school to listen, go farther with it. you're his mom it's your responsibility to protect him in and out of school.

I am glad all worked out and you followed up on this until action took place. I have never believed in blowing off bullying as we all know the columbine story with those 2 young men bulllied there entire life.
It is our responsibility as a parent to protect our children. The problem that comes in now a days are that alot of the children that initiate the bullying have no guideance @ home and it is so difficult for the teachers to deal with them, so they rather bug the parents to death that are involved with there child to have you continuously speak to yours, and that is not the way. I had this happen to me once as
well with my son who was 7 at the time being bullied and I demanded conference with the parents and it finally happend. Come to find out I grew up with the other boys father and him and I talked as reasonable adults, he gave me his wife and his cell phone#s and it never happend again. His parents nipped his bullying in the bud and him and my son never had any other problems. We need parents to really raise their children again.

Thank you so much Healthy11 for keeping an eye on my post. I greatly appreciate your advice and will do accordingly. I have a website that I posted the whole incident there for my family and friends to know. They have shared their insights as well. And all of you have common advices and reactions. I felt so much better at least I know that we are not over-reacting to the situation. BTW, I failed to mention that they will have the child on probationary measures such as no soccer ball till he proves he's capable of playing nicely and sharing. They will also speak with his parents and let them know what happen.

FYI, a teacher who was present on the meeting, stated that before the incident happen, he saw my son has the soccerball and invited the involved child to play with him nicely. She thought things are going on smoothly and turned her back. She was guessing this happened right after she turned her back, and was self-apologetic she didn't watch longer. But I've done the letter for the principal. I definitely would want this incident documented in my son's record so they'd be more cautious next time. A wonderful thank you again!!!

BTW, I always stress to my son how names are important. Several incidents have happened to him and we don't know who to complain simply because he doesn't know the child's name. So I told him never play with someone til he gets the child's name. If he won't give you his name, don't play with him...that signals trouble. I told him to pull any adult/teacher towards the child had he not known his name, and make sure the culprit was seen and identified by the teacher/adult. That's the only time he'll feel safe and secured coz I can do the next step for him.

I would imagine your son can tell you the name of the other child involved, but I'm surprised the school won't share what their disciplinary steps will be. (Even if it's saying "the other child and his parents have been given a warning that any future incidents may result in his suspension" or "he will not be allowed to participate in outdoor recess for this coming week" or whatever...) If you haven't already done this, and don't have a written copy of the incident report of your own, then at least make sure there's a documentation record of your meeting...
"Dear (Principal), I appreciate your taking the time, along with (Kindergarten Teachers), to meet with me today in regards to the incident that occurred last (date.) As I mentioned, my kindergarten son (name) was (physically dragged on the playground by John Doe.) You indicated that you will take appropriate disciplinary action, as well as steps to ensure better supervision, so that this does not happen again, to my son or anyone else. The safety of our children is most important. Thank you, (your name)"
