On Monday my son broke his arm....well Thats what I said ...as the story is He had it broken by the school bullies!!!!! they are no longer at school ..but my sons arm is still broke!!!!!

Kem, that is awful , is there nothing anyone can do Hazelx

well they that did it or out but ...unless we get the police and that would only get them a caution which lasts less than a year coz of their ages....... Thats justice!! haha

Cant they be charged with 'actual bodily harm'?

Oh, Sharleen, I am so very sorry.

Firstly what age is your son and the bullies, please. Hope you boy ok..

Kem , all i can say then ,is that i hope the same happens to them then they'll know what it's like . Hazelx

My son and the bullies are 14.... hes just got over the shock today ..but he hurts ...

They can be charged but their record will be wiped clean at 16 coz its not taken into adulthood ........its called a juvanial record!!

If the school wont do anything you should report it to the police.I hope your son makes a fast and full recovery and that those responsible receive the punishment they deserve.My son was bullied for ages and never told us because he was afraid it would make things worse.His behaviour changed and he became very angry and was stealing money from my purse. He wouldn't talk to us and we ended up having him referred to a behavioural therapist who saw him once and said he didn't have anything wrong with him.I felt awful when everything came out and he said 'what can you do,except make things worse?' HE'S 27 now but I still remember how desperate he was at the time .

Ok, Thanks and glad he is ok now....Right if you speak with the police and cps decided to take it on ( sure they will) then these boys will get upto a 5 year caution and or worse but i don't know full story. You have it in your right to contact police but if you think it may cause you boy more bother then think, if the have been excluded then is that enough..Speak to your son and decide..Good luck.X

Oh Paula ....kids theres no instruction book is there!! he found a girl on friday crying in a class ...and huged her.. It was her so called boyfriend and his mates who did this to my son for cuddling this girl

A broken arm indicates a serious assault...and the lads are 14. They were fully aware of what they were doing. I would take it to the police, and take it from there. I hope your lad makes a full recovery...physical and emotional. Getting justice is part of that, I imagine. I hope all goes well...especially as I get the feeling from a previous thread that this isn't the first time? Take care Daff xxx

So sorry to hear this. I do hope the bullies have been properly punished. The broken arm will heal with time. I just hope there are not too many emotional scars. Jean x.

Frostyboy Jay Thanks for that ...I will talk to my son about it. Tha school have said that my son played no part in the bad behaviour of these boys....and their words are This is an unprovoked attack on your son I must say a taecher was watching this happen ....when asked why he didnt chip in he said I thought they were playing...............!

You are right ...its not the first time But the first time was one year ago ..at school playing footie ..so it was an accident ..but I just wonder!!!!!!

That is? Well i don't get this, has the schjool got a bad reputation? For a teacher to say that (were they worried,stressed or plain ignorant) then means there is no real control, you can tell play fights to bullies fights...Please chat with son and school and i really hope and trust all will be sorted. Jay.x

sorry but they must be dealt with by the police,,,,,,,,it just cant be allowed go un-noticed with a slap on the hand,,,,,,,,,,this is serious assult,,,,,,,,,,what are the school doing then,,,nothing,,,,,,stopping them from school for a fews days will not teach them nothing,,,,,,, I hope their parents have been informed,,,,,,but maybe like so many,,,will not belive their little lad is capable of such things,,,,,

I,m glad i,m not the only one whos mad over this .... The school is FANTASTIC....but its 'some ' teachers....and those can only be removed in time!! The head knows I,m angry and to what level...but I have to calm down first before I 'FIGHT' the next bit Feeling more confident after your comments ...

Oh ...this school is 17 in the schools tables!!!!! scarey aint it!!
