Q:
A student today threatened to bring a knife to school and stab my son, and the principal has not suspended the child yet.
Hello, I have a son who is 12 years old, he attends G.B. Little Public School in Scarborough. For the past 4 years my son has been an active member of the hullup program against bullying. Now my son is the one being threatened, and horrified. Today I went to my son's school to drop off some lunch to him, and as my son approached me, I heard a boy shout out, "My son's name, and call my son, a [bad name: question edited by Education.com Community Team]. My son wouldn't even look back, he kept his head held to the ground. I asked my son why this older boy is saying these things, my son replied he does this to me a lot and the other grade 7. I asked my son what does he do when this child does this, my son replies, he just ignores the kid, and he does it all the time. I asked the child when he was close to me and my son, has my son done anything to you, he shouts out to me " I don't give a [bad word: question edited by Education.com Community Team]." Then I said to the child not to speak to my son, and he told me that , he doesn't give a [bad word] about me or this school. I told the kid I will speak to the principal about this, and the child said in the school yard, I don't give [bad word] about you or the [bad names] principal. I went in the school told the principal, as I was leaving the school the same boy was waiting for me in the front school parking way, and yelled at me and my car. Then kids told my son the boy wants to come to school tomorrow and bring a knife and hurt my son. We are terrified, this child is out of control. I am not sending my son to school.
