Middle School Mom

As a middle school mom, I know I don't want to have to live through that time again. But, I am, as part of helping my daughter survive. I volunteer each week in the school office, to allow me a glimpse into the world she faces daily. And, frankly, I think she's doing well considering. It has helped me know how the system works to move up one level in Math.
But I am stymied by a situation with a bullying classmate, bordering on harrassment. It is one of those things, that if reported to the school counselors, would probably make the situation worse. I try, each night, to tuck my daughter into bed and kiss her good night. Some nights, we talk at bedtime, about her day, friends, thoughts, etc. Last night, she was furiously knitting as she was anxious about going to school. We talked long enough for her to make almost a whole scarf as she shared her situation and concerns. I am so thankful she is willing to talk to me; I just wish I had the magic answer to help her. Yes, if only I could snap my fingers and/or wiggle my nose...
