So, my friend's (a girl, in 12th grade, 18 years old) little sister (in 7th grade) has been getting bullied by these 4 girls almost every day, and makingher cry. Her sister's very reserved and one of the nicest girls you'd ever meet so don't say "tell her to toughen up". Her older sister(my friend) decided to confront one of those girls one day when she was picking her up from school. My friend nicely asked her, along with her friends, toleave her sister alone, but the girl had a smart mouth and kept talking back and cursing at her about her sister. My friend kind of got heated and used someprofanity while yelling at her and a teacher from the middle school went up to my friend and told her to not use "vulgar language towards one of mystudents" and "you can get arrested for trespassing." Needless to say, after my friend finished what she had to say, the girl didn't sayanything.
My friend asked to speak to the middle school principal, and the principal said that she was trespassing and should not have been on campus, let aloneinvolving herself in an activity like that. Also, she said she would call the principal of my friend's high school, which would supposedly mess somethingup on her record.
I got pretty mad as my friend was telling me the story, cause IMO, morals make a lot more sense than the trespassing rule and my friend shouldn't bepenalized heavily if at all. All she was doing was defending her little sister and when the kid started getting smart and cursing back at her, she might havelet her temper go a little bit.
What should my friend do? I suggested to wait til her principal is notified, and present her case, which I think makes a lot of sense and shouldn't deserve a penalty like the one the middle school principal said.
