My daughter is in 6th grade. Ever since kindergarten, a girl named Melinda has been harassing her ... sometimes subtly, sometimes not. Every once in awhile, Melinda will make friendly overtures, but my daughter knows she can't trust Melinda, so she more or less blows them off. In the past few months, Melinda has found a new way to bother my daughter ... by getting right up into her face and staring at her. My daughter has tried telling her to stop, asking her what she wants and ignoring her, but nothing works. She told me about it and I made the teacher aware of it. This teacher is very strict and knows Melinda is a troublemaker, so she said she'd keep on eye on her ... but today, my daughter came home upset again and said she's sick of it so obviously it's still going on. What should I do know? Talk to Melinda directly, talk to Melinda's mother, talk to the principal or the teacher again? Thanks!
