Something ....lots of something isn't in this article here. Too many what's and why's left in the open.
I hope he is alright and whatever the problem that caused him to leave the school....or how ever the story goes....gets resolved. "

Doesn't he have enough to deal with without a whole other county, along with his peers, making it worse ?
He's 10 year's old. Why should we add to his stress ? "

Vocal-de-local ...Sammy.....naynay....I couldn't have said it better.
The School is responsible for maintaining a "safe and comfortable environment" for their students. It is in the rule/law book that all schools have to follow. Ask me how I know? With as many kids as I have raised and put through this school system....been toe to toe with a big wig or two in my day.
Child rights prevail at ALL times. This young mans rights were/are being clearly violated. Something can/should/and will be done about it now I am sure.
I am very glad that he was found unharmed. Physically anyway. Hugs to you young man. "

I think people are just concerned about the little guy school just refuse to take responsabilty when it comes to bullies they always have and if the public doesnt stand up and tell these schools they need to enforce their no bulling polices they wont do it,I am going to go out on a limb here one who wants to turn a blind eye proboble was a bully.Its we say no to these bullies and to the schools that protect them and to the parents that dont teach thier kids compasion.So please by all means keep your head in the sand.
