Mum’s post about the impact of bullying on her daughter just broke us

Heartbreaking.

As mums know, someone upsetting your child brings out another side of you, a fierce, protective side that would do anything to ensure no harm comes to your little one. Stevie Niki, a popular parenting blogger whom you might recognise from My Tribe of Six, experienced this feeling recently and decided to share it with her Instagram followers. The mum took to Instagram to share how she cried with her daughter after the six-year-old spoke about the bullying that's been going on since she moved schools. Australian native Stevie shared how distressing it was to have her daughter ask why she doesn't have any friends.

"Questioned me as to why she doesn't have friends and that she's not good enough. Today she had a good day at school, she played with a kid and had fun. But this is what its like, it doesnt matter if its a good day when the pains still there and the wounds are still raw. The damage has been done and its not yet repaired - will it ever? I hope so".

This led Stevie to question whether it was the right decision to move schools and homes and if the family should have stayed in the house where her children were born. The mum of four then went on to say that she didn't know what to do next but that she was considering what would be best for her daughter. Her parting words include an important message, to always be open with your kids and teach them kindness so that other children don't have to endure what Stevie's child is currently going through.

"So talk to your kids, teach them kindness and inclusiveness - because no mum and no child should have to sit through this and feel what we feel".
