I received a call at around 2pm while at work from DH on Wednesday. He told me that SS had gotten jumped by three boys from school. He was hurt and his glasses were broke.

As you can imagine, I was freaked out. I immediately left work and raced home. It wasn't as bad as we had imagined. He did have bruised eyebrow that was swelling. His glasses were a little bend but fine. Either way, I was still very upset that some kid punched SS in the face. SS said he didn't know the kids names (several were in attendance) and he didn't know why they wanted to fight him.

SS has been complaining about being bullied in his new school pretty much since the beginning. Last month, I told DH I had enough and we needed to go to the school and get this figured out. DH said he would handle it and then he didn't do anything. DH told SS he would handle the fight without getting the school or police involved. When I asked him what he was going to do, he had no clue.

So, I did what I always do. I handled it. I took yesterday off work and went into SS's school full on momma bear mode. The principal told me that she couldn't do anything because it wasn't on school property but if it happened again, I could call the police. I told her I wasn't waiting for my kid to get punched in the face again. I wanted the culprits name, I was calling the police today.

AND THEN.....The truth came out. SS isn't being bullied; he is the bully. The kid that punched him did it because SS had slapped him in the breakfast line a few weeks prior and this confrontation between the kids had been brewing. Several other kids were pulled out of the class and asked questions. His teacher had a very long talk with me about SS bullying kids, continuing blaming others for "being out to get him", telling kids he is going to kill them and other worrying details.

SS was a bully in his last school. We all knew that. Even Wednesday night, DH and I were talking about the fight and how SS had to be more at fault that he was admitting. I asked the teacher why none of these incidents had been reported to DH or I. She said she didn't want SS to not trust her????

I'm not a doctor but I seriously think SS has some kind of mental illness. I'm not talking about ADD or ADHD. I feel like it's something much more serious. If you read my past blogs from a few years ago, SS was completely out of control. We thought we had a handle on his more serious issues but his teacher just isn't keeping us in the loop in regards to his violence in school.....But we get calls when he won't stop talking in school or he is not completing work???

DH and I were seriously mad at SS yesterday. He lied to us about not knowing the kid that hit him and not knowing why he would do it. He has been lying when we ask him how he is behaving in school. He's back to getting bad grades because he is lying about having homework and isn't brining home his books to study when he has a test.

As soon as the custody is finalized, I'm going to put SS (along with DH and SD) on my insurance and we are taking him to a counselor. DH and I have no idea what else to do at this point.
