WWYD, we live in a really peaceful upscale area. A new kid moved here - he is 12. Made death threats re: Hitler to a Jewish boy. The school let it slip that it was his second arrest. He spend a day in Juvenille Hall for this latest thing- and only 2 days suspension! He comes back tomorrow- would you be more scared or less (after his punishment). Worried for dc that sits next to him. [ Reply | Watch | Flag ]

frankly, more. he got a vacation from school for handing out a death threat. it's sad and the kid sounds troubled and like someone you should feel sorry for, but don't let that stop you from speaking to the teacher. DON'T ask them to move your kid's seat, as that'd be asking for a confrontation between your child and this disturbed boy, but just calmly express your concern to the teacher and ask for their help in keeping an eye out or something.

I was afraid it would be "more", now he is the "bad" kid...so why not live up to the rep. I love the school announcement they gave the kids "xxx is returning from his vacation and may be a little grumpy". [ Reply | More

ugh. if you haven't already, explain to your child that this boy is disturbed and has probably been on the receiving end of some pretty horrific treatment. just try to act normal around him. don't be mean of course, and don't ignore him. be courteous and receptive to courtesy, and if anything at all comes up, go straight to the teacher in private. tattletaling is bad, but in this case it's about getting this kid sorted out with some professional help.
