A Michigan mother says her 6th-grade son has been repeatedly physically attacked at Greenville schools and that administrators have failed to act.

“Greenville public school is a joke. I have dealt with my kids being bullied since elementary school,” the mother wrote.

She says the latest incident happened while her son was playing outside with friends: one student kicked him in the privates, another kicked him in the groin, and other students threw snow in his face.

She says that last week, a Gatorade was dumped in his lap. Earlier, she says, a student threatened to bring a gun to school, and “NOTHING WAS DONE.”

Her nephew, she added, has been shoved, elbowed in the face, shoved into fences, and suffered a concussion.

“I feel there are more problems than what I see just with my kids. I honestly think the elementary school needs to do better, they brush it off and dont do anything to reprimand the child. So when they go to the middle school where there is more kids and less parental guidance, its out of control. I know im not the only parent dealing with this. Please speak up, we parents can make a difference,” she concluded.

Other Parents Came in Support

The post drew heavy reaction from the Greenville community. Many commenters called the incidents criminal. “This isn’t bullying!! This is assault — call the police,” one wrote. “Press charges,” another urged.

Parents shared similar stories and solutions. “Many of us transferred our kiddos to Belding due to this,” one said. “I moved to Belding … it was the best decision ever!!” another commented.

A string of parents recommended removing children from district schools or homeschooling: “HOMESCHOOL…,” one parent wrote. “Michigan Online School. The best,” another added.

Several commenters urged escalation to authorities and district leaders. “File a police report EACH TIME!!!” one said. “Go to the superintendent and the school board,” another advised.

One parent posted step-by-step advice: notify the teacher and principal, call local advocacy resources, file a police report, then forward all records to the superintendent.

Calls for legal action and media involvement were standard. “Get a lawyer and have them call the school,” one commenter recommended. “Take it to the news stations,” another wrote.

Others stressed documentation: “Photos of injured children, certified letters and threats of legal action can do wonders for a principal’s interest in cooperating,” one parent said.

Some urged parents to prepare kids to defend themselves. “Put him in wrestling,” one suggested; another recommended karate or self-defense classes.

Others warned the problem is longstanding: “This was happening when I was in Greenville school almost 20 years ago,” one commenter noted.

The mother says Greenville’s anti-bullying policy is not enforced and that elementary-level issues worsen in middle school, where supervision is looser.

She is calling on other parents to speak up and press the district for accountability.

If your child is affected: document dates, times, and injuries; preserve messages and photos; report incidents to the school and to law enforcement; and bring detailed evidence to the superintendent or school board.
