When an adult interferes with your child's happiness...

Some people have nothing better to do in their lives so they choose to pick on innocent children. What a sad life that person must have. If I were you I would see if there is something that can be done about that neighbor. I know that bullying is illegal on the internet ever since it took the life of a teenage girl.

zoey you are her mom and you must protect her so get in their fces and tell them to back off or you will call the police for harassment of your little girl,that might make them stop and if it doesnt stop sic your hubby on them sometimes it takes a male 'presence.

Supposedly bullies are bullies because, nine times out of ten, they have very low self-esteem. How low must your esteem be to bully a child whose instincts tell them to respect you because you are an adult? Yikes.

If they do such things again, I think you can call cops and accuse them of ruining others' fame. Such bad guys to hurt a little girl! They should be punished!

Hi zoey, Sounds like your neighbour is not such a grown up person well I don´t want to say childlike either rather a big bully with a super inflated ego has she not got nothing better to do all day than to pick on children. Why does she not pick on someone her own size? Bullies know all about them too my school was plagued with them. What a shame children cannot play anymore the way we did. A child is not allowed to shout, cry ect. I believe we are going backwards in progress a child will always be a child no matter what planet we live on. Now we are not allowed to talk to a child this is unbelievable to an extent. Where I used to live across the road there was a person for want of a better word living with her two kids who are not better than she. She has dedicated her time and she works full time has a job too but she spends her time making everyones life in that street a real misery except for me I look her straight in the eye and defy her and she is unable to look at me because she knows what ground she is treading on. But with the rest of them she plays holy hell. I opened the door while I was there to a group of teenagers who were trying to get their ball back of our garden and I just said thats ok you can get it back. You cannot believe the expression on their faces they looked at me gone out gobsmacked. I think they thought I was going to make a big thing of it. Sorry to talk in this tense but when it comes to someone bullying a child I just cannot believe that a government will have someone arrested just for that it is just not believable. Have we taken leave of our senses. I hope this situation goes no further and people recover their sense of propriety.

Adults bullying a child? What is our world coming to? Seriously, how deranged and insecure must these people be to even consider ridiculing little children? You mentioned that talking to these people is useless, which makes things much more difficult to resolve. If I were in your situation, I would play cunning pranks on them. Allow them to suspect you, yet never prove you guilty. Of course, this probably won't solve matters, but it could at least put a smile on both you and your daughter's faces.

Well, ask that friend to buy u a bottle of lice medication if she finds a single one in ur daughter's head. I am missing my mom all the more after reading ur thoughts zoey. I wish she had been around - all these battles became truly mine since the age of 5 and a half. :( So I can safely say - u can challenge that person and since such medication doesnt cost anything ask her - show me one and I will give u the honor of buying a bottle of lice medication for my child. She wont tell u there is one, even if there is one! ha ha. And the 27 year old! When ur daughter outgrows that toy. Pack it neatly and offer it as gift to the 27 year old. Adding - Ask and thou shalt receive. That would hurt enough I suppose.
