No problem.I’d rather not say. South side. Non denominational.
maybe he was sharing whats happened and asking for advice as someone else maybe would have dealt with a similar situation.Ok, as I said not in any way downplaying it for you. If it was my kid I’d be raging.
However, I think you need to decide for yourself what you need to do. Surely that’s better than asking people on here what to do. I’m sure you’re more than capable of sorting it out yourself, so believe in yourself and do what you think is right. He’s your boy.
As for the bigoted bullying…it’s wee 6 year olds fighting.
As a father myself i am sure your going through a range of emotions going from absolute anger to being a bit more calm as you will not want to inflame the situation anymore . My son was bullied first year of Secondary my advice was to go in and before the bully could say a word back stab the wee chunt my boy was a bit worried what the school would say but i told him %^*& the school long story short he rag dolled the boy and had know more trouble .and my boy couldnt fight sleep .He can defend himself. But he wasn’t expecting it and he was ganged up on by a couple of them although only one supposedly lifted his hands.
This is a 6 year old child we are talking about not someone in their early teens. A young child vulnerable to what is tantamount to bullying, maybe have a think next timeGet off social media and learn your son to defend himself. Jeessuuss fkn wept.
Good luck with that.
Hope your wee lad is ok.
6 year old?Aye because all six year olds should be like Chuck Norris ffs
I remember in the seventies, being six years old walking to school and every morning having to walk past the bus stop where the catholic kids would wait to get picked up by their bus to be taken to the local bigot factory. Every morning I'd be kicked, punched and spat on but, hey, it's the big bad prods who are sectarian.
Shocking to hear about your poor wee man.My 6 year old son was attacked today at school by one of the kids in his class because he said he supported Rangers. One of the Tim kids punched him several times in his face and neck. (I might add that there’s an RC primary less than 100 yards away but there somehow are 5 Tims in his class,) While I am very much anti Celtic I have told him repeatedly if other kids in your class support other teams that’s absolutely fine. I am absolutely fucking raging. We are contacting the Head Teacher tomorrow to say if she doesn’t do something about it we’re going to the Education Department at Glasgow City Council and kicking up absolute %^*&.
Shocking to here his information. I think contacting the director of education as a last resort , is the correct way forward. The head teacher needs to request a meeting with the bully’s parents or guardians immediately.My 6 year old son was attacked today at school by one of the kids in his class because he said he supported Rangers.

Kids of that age have been fighting and hitting each other at schools since time immemorial
It's really worrying the wee guy was attacked because he said he likes Rangers ,because the other 6'year-old shouldn't be that triggered about someone's football team ,probably deeper issues here .
That’s not entirely true, kids are impressionable & can either learn from other kids or feel a need to show off.Fed and raised on hate, there is no other explanation.
Kids don't learn this shit from anywhere there than family.
Scumbags.
Aye, that'll solve it.....Take it up with the local snp (probably) and see what happens or get this into the media (ffs) no chance, i would be visiting the father of this little animal accompanied with a baseball bat but you know where that would get you in this shitty little country, or you could try contacting the clubs PR department with this little story
First of all this is a rangers forum not social media. Second of all you speak and act like a Tim.Get off social media and learn your son to defend himself. Jeessuuss fkn wept.
That’s not entirely true, kids are impressionable & can either learn from other kids or feel a need to show off.
There are many possible explanations to this & folk need to stop hitting out with worst case scenarios.
No but there is from a very young age an insecurity many kids feel of being the bully or the bullied & will find any reason to isolate folk & protect themselves. That can in-turn lead to them overcompensating by hitting them to reaffirm their point.Yes they are impressionable.
But I don't believe for one second that Kids can have violent tendencies over such trivial matters, because at the age of 6 there is only a difference in colour between teams and who wins or loses.
There is no ingrained hatred, without it being hammered into their little heads over and over to the point it becomes a thought process.
Some of the "advice" on here makes you wonder how much exposure to the real world people have outside the prism of their screen. Report it to the media and tell them it was a sectarian attack. FFS.

Kids that young aren't emotionally involved enough with a football team to become enraged and start battering someone over the mention of a football team.Kids of that age have been fighting and hitting each other at schools since time immemorial

We have Catholic, Jewish, Muslim, and Non Denominational Schools. A few integrated schools, which have separate staff rooms, and some other separate things. No schools specifically for Protestants. Sad state of affairs here in Scotland.Are most of the schools in Scotland integrated?

Totally agree mateKids that young aren't emotionally involved enough with a football team to become enraged and start battering someone over the mention of a football team.
It's obvious that the wean learned this behaviour from the household or friends they play with.
Have read only a few of the threads, but I would have went to the police, that would put extra pressure on the HT, as their usually useless anyway, as Education under the Natsis has gone down the Tubes.My 6 year old son was attacked today at school by one of the kids in his class because he said he supported Rangers.

Probably got her kids wax on wax off on her car 1st thing in the morningHopefully that's what you've "learned" yours, and left the English to his other parent.

The media? No offence to the OP but schoolyard antics isn't news.
The only way the school will take it seriously will be if you claim that your child was subjected to a sectarian assault. Make no mistake, if it was the other way round, that's exactly how it would be reported to the school.
Sorry to hear that mate, hope the wee man is okay. Don't take any sh*t from the school and let them know from the off how far you're prepared to take this.My 6 year old son was attacked today at school by one of the kids in his class because he said he supported Rangers.

Boxing would be my advice added bonus you can do pad and bag work as bonding time as well at home my 2 (son and daughter) were hitting pads from about the age of 4, great for hand eye coordination and movement.Get the wee man into a martial art - karate etc.
Consider going with him to classes - bit of Father - Son bonding plus it will grown his confidence.
Whit?!or you could try contacting the clubs PR department with this little story
Shocking behaviour. Go to the papers and everything. Take this as far as you can. If shoe was on the another foot my god.

Thanks for the info. Appreciated.Some of the "advice" on here makes you wonder how much exposure to the real world people have outside the prism of their screen. Report it to the media and tell them it was a sectarian attack. FFS. The child doing it isn't old enough to know better.
Advice would be to contact the head teacher and tell them you view it as a social work matter. You understand there isn't much they can do and you are that concerned, you're going to go home and highlight it to GCC via email . Namely Douglas Hutchison - GCC director of education(he replaced Maureen Mckenna recently)
tell them you are seriously considering moving your child from that school as you don't feel that he is safe, Leave it at that.
The last thing they will want is a QIO in looking at how they run the school. nor will they want a bad rep with other schools in the area as you go to get your child into them and tell them what happened.
That will be enough to make them act

William and Kate visited a RC primary last week in Port Glasgow. Probably the most populated RC town in Scotland am sure a lot of the parents were not to happy.That’s shocking, report it to the head teacher and follow up to see what action is taken.
These days, primary school children walloping each other is a serious incident. You could add the sectarian aspect of it as well.
My kids go to a RC school down here (long story) and one of the kids told my daughter that Rangers fans don’t believe in God when she said that her Daddy supported the Bears.
I’d had the kid’s rabid Shinner dad in my sights for a while so took the opportunity to give him both barrels.
He claimed to have no idea where his child was getting such ideas from… I suggested that such views are usually established in the home and he went purple.
Have to say that the school has a fine collection of Union Jacks and portraits of the Queen done by the kids strung up along the gates just now. Not something I guess you would find outside your average RC primary in Scotland unfortunatey.
Find the wee tim dicks da and leather him.
