What should I do?

Scottish Jodi

Hi, my sisters told me when I was tucking them into bed that, their jackets got stolen at school by a group of bullies aged 11 and when they asked the lads to give the jackets back, they said no then put them in the nearest bin after cutting the arm off of the jackets.

I told my parents but they said that the girls should go to the school principal regarding that. However, my sisters are scared to do that in case the "gang" end up finding out then gang up on them.

But, what I want to know is, who should be paying for a replacement jacket for the girls, us or the parents or even the

Your parents needs to go to the principal. Why are they expecting the children to do it?????

The children are afraid so I can see their perspective but the school should have appropriate measures to deal with this without backlash. It’s not going to stop unless it’s tackled.

Your parents really said that? Jeez :O

The bullies should pay for the jackets but it should coincide with an end to the bullying

According to your other posts your sisters are 5. When exactly did 11yr olds get a chance to steal their jackets,cut off the sleeves and throw them in a bin. Surely as junior or senior infants they are supervised at all tmes at school and home time?

Scottish Jodi

That was my first thought too because I think it would be unfair on us to have to replace 2 jackets that were expensive.

Hi Jody.
From what I've read from your previous posts your sister(s) are five?
There should be no period of time where they're unsupervised long enough for this to happen.
Call in to the class teacher and express your concerns

Scottish Jodi

Yeah, they are 5.

Speak to the teacher then ..at the very least so that they can take the scissors off the 11 yr olds.

Lol.

Round up a squad of boys and go beat the living **** out of the bullies.

fineso.mom

They are 5 . its up to your parents to sort this out for them. I still dont understand how/when this happened. In my school juniors breaks and home times are different to older classes. They also have different parts of the playground. Juniors are collected by parents/guardians at the door of their class.
So if 11yr olds are bullying 5yr olds something has gone very wrong in the school. Speak to teacher and principal.
Also no need to keep pming me,just reply here.

Only logical thing to do would be to cut one of their arms off and teach em a lesson,

You know what they say, an arm for an arm

This isn't your job to sort out its your parents. if this happened on school property they should have been supervised by the teachers so i don't understand how this would have happened.
Also how when your parents were picking up your sisters from school it wasn't dealt with the and then when they didn't have jackets to go home in. ( it was cold today)
If it happened on their way home from school, they are too young to be making their own way home from school.
If it happened when they were out playing in the neighbourhood it's not the schools fault and they are too young to not be supervised.

I don't know what's funnier, the stupid threads on here or the people that believe them

Seems to be a strong ‘little sisters plus jackets’ theme running through your threads....

Whassup with that?

Was the gang of 11yr olds part of ISIS?

That is where you are wrong, this is the first one of them! My others are to do with other kids in general, I was just curious to know the answer. The others were to do with discipline, because I babysit the girls after school, the last one was about a certain activity so stop with these cheeky posts!

I am not going to say it again, I am NOT a troll etc !

Posted this in the other little sister thread by accident, got lost in the web for a minute


5 year olds mixing with 11 year olds (who carry scissors or sharp knives, butter knife is too blunt, possibly a machete, chainsaw even)

Jackets put in bins but not retrieved.

No one notices the girls jackets missing until they say it at bedtime (it's January, first thing you'd notice). Who picked them up? With such a strong stance on zipping up jackets........

Parents tell 5 year olds to arrange a meeting with the school principle themselves to make a complaint. 5 year olds. Second class. Meeting. Arrange.

The same 5 year olds that need to be 'commanded' to zip up their jackets.

Scottish Jodi

I understand your scepticism but, as I said on your last post, I am not a troll so you guys are safe.

I would not flood the site with as many topics /threads as that Tanya lass.

My question on the fastened jacket was just as I'm curious to know why kids are reluctant to do that.

Street justice is all that will work. Your siblings don’t want to be known as “snitches.”

Snitches get stitches. Stitches can be used to re attach the sleeve of the jacket that was ripped off. Everyone’s a winner.

Is this Balbriggan or Lucan?

What age are you?

Tell them Gilets(Sleeveless jackets) are all the rage!

daheff

(aasuming you are not taking the piss) if that is your parents attitude, then you should talk to the school principle about this. But you should also ask about having them taken into care. If your parents arent interested in jackets being stolen from 5 year olds by much older children, then god knows what else they are neglecting in these kids lives.

again.... thats assuming you arent trolling.

Set up Five Year Olds Fight Club after school. Winner takes whatever jacket they want.

It's the internet. Everything is true.....Albert Einstein said that!

Big Bag of Chips

I'd say they threw the jackets away themselves. It's one way to shut you up about them.

Although you're slipping up. You went from being obsessed that they tie up their zips and put up their hoods to not even noticing they they weren't wearing them.

You need to pay more attention at your childcare course.

I have said this a whole lot of f****** times, I AM NOT A TROLL :mad:!

I would want custody of them if that was the case and tbh, my sisters would want that too.

Ssssh. I for one look forward to seeing what thread we'll get every day about these 5 year old twins and their jackets.

Big Bag of Chips

My parents did say to the girls that if they had their jackets fastened up then the incident would likely not have occurred :-O.

Lesson learnt so.
They'll zip them up the next time, and you won't have to keep telling them.

Maybe your parents set the whole thing up to teach the girls a lesson...

you have to forgive me, but the outrageousness of what you are saying happened makes it seem not so credible.

So assuming you are telling the truth, have you gone to the school today and talked to the principle? Or done anything?

If these children are being bullied and harassed to the extent that 11 year olds are effectively holding them up to take their jackets, which they then cut up...have you retrieve the jackets and talked to your local gardai?

Further to that, when (and I don't mean if) you talk to the principle about the situation, I would also advise that the children's parents did not see fit to come and discuss the matter (bullying/theft) and that the parents thought the 5 year olds should call into the principle to talk about what had happened.

Scottish Jodi

I got the situation resolved today and we got replacement jackets dropped off at the house just before 5pm .

The principal said that he was shocked that a group of older kids managed to get into the area where junior kids play so will now have someone on playground duty to ensure this doesn't happen again.

The older kids parents were very shocked by what their kids actions and have now grounded them for a year and also insisted that they apologise to my sisters.

AskMeBollix

My lil roosters had their jackets taken too so I can really relate to this thread, let's just say they're in really hot water now
