My daughter is also 12 years old and in the 6th grade. I have enjoyed  
reading about your son's project and I am going to try some of these meals at  home. 
I did find spotted dick at the store today. It made me smile. 
 
I just thought I would write quickly on here to let you know that my  
daughter is having problems with bullies as well. The boys in her class are all  very 
nice, but the girls have changed this year. The two girls giving her  
problems are fairly new. Well one is new this year and the other she met last  year. 
Last year they were the best of friends and now this year the girl is so  mean 
to my daughter. She has come home crying. 
 
She is a very pretty and sweet girl. I feel so bad for her as she has never  
had anyone pick on her like this before. She is made fun of for just about  
anything and everything that these other girls can think of. From Harry Potter  
to her pets. 
 
Do you have any idea of how to deal with this? I told her to try ignoring  it 
the best that she can. Easy to say, but probably hard to do.
 
I tell her to play with the boys and she giggles. I think I need to  rephrase 
things better. :) The boys, though, are all so nice and although they  do 
tease the girls it is in a nice manner. I think she would be so much happier  if 
she just hung out with them.
 
Hugs,
Cathy who is very glad to no longer be in school, at least middle  school.
