Yup! I totally had this happen to me at the beginning of the school year this year. This groups has been little a-holes for 3 years now. The would say I smelled like b/o …..when I didn’t. I called them out in front of the whole class about it. I asked them what exactly I smelled like and that it’s interesting no one but these 5 student in this particular class could smell it. And it stopped right after I embarrassed them.
I love it! Mine was too sexual to actually confront them, but I bet it would have shut them down a lot earlier.
Yes, a few years ago, I was targeted by a group of 8th grade boys. There were about 10 of them, but one, naturally, was the ring leader. There's always a ring leader. I was a tenured, 9-year teacher at that time. They said some specific sexual comments to me under their breath and about me in other classes. It was clear they were referring to me. I was angry, embarrassed, and sick of it.
I use the word targeted, not bullied, because I'm not sure the latter fits by definition, even if it felt that way. Nevertheless, it sucked to be me. I was suffering in silence for a while and then spoke to my union rep, who suggested I go to administration. She offered to go with me. I was really so embarrassed to have to repeat what they said to my principal and vp, and, believe me, I'm no prude. I was worried because I was sure it would backfire, either with the students or admin.
They listened, and they responded. I was asked if I wanted to sit in on their discussion with the students and parents. Yes, they spoke singly and group, some with patents , some without because the parents couldn't or wouldn't meet. It was swift and over once the admin got involved. I was relieved, to be sure. I was also appreciative of my admin. However, because of this, I'm very sensitive to anything that remotely feels like what happened before, and I am just waiting for the other shoe to drop, I guess.
We are a K-8. I was never more happy when those 8th graders moved on to HS.

It is heartbreaking when kids take the path to bullying. The victim is the one who suffers the most.
