“Honestly, I’m at a loss here. My daughter’s been coming home really quiet lately, and when I asked, she finally admitted some kids have been bullying her at school. I want to step in and fix it, but I’m not sure what the best move is. I don’t want to make things worse by talking to the school, but I can’t just sit back and do nothing either. Any advice from other dads who’ve dealt with this?”
Omg, I totally get where you’re coming from 😢 My daughter was also super bubbly and then just… turned into a different person after all the bullying. It’s the worst feeling in the world watching them hurt. I tried journaling with her at night—it sounds kinda silly, but it was like an outlet for her when she couldn’t talk about what was happening. Maybe something like that could work? But also, take care of urself too, ‘cause this is so heavy, and u need support just as much as she does 💔
