Legal Question in Civil Litigation in Massachusetts
Can the law protect my son from harrassment?
In the 5th grade, my son got beaten up by a older boy at school. Now, two yrs. later he is still being harrassed about this everyday. They call him a pansy, mama's boy whimp, etc. It's driving him crazy. What can I do or can the law help me to stop this?

Re: Can the law protect my son from harrassment?
My son is being harassed on the school bus. We got
names. Not sure whether to go see the kids' parents
or just go to the school and see what they do about
it, but I'm inclined to start at the school. If you
send me private e-mail ([email protected]) I will
keep you posted.

It's a very difficult problem. VERY.
Perhaps the school personnel can be enlisted to help
solve the problem. Number 1 step is to identify
those who are harassing him now and to inform their
teachers and parents. If the school itself does not
help, and you are in Mass., I could call the school
for you if you like.
I don't think you're looking for financial penalties
to be applied, just for the behavior to stop, right?
