You need to have Tori thinking that you have control over everything including your emotions. Tori will believe that it is her fault that you are upset because the issue is around her school.

Theresa, if I were you, I'd ask for a meeting with the Principal, the teacher, the lunchroom aide, and perhaps someone from the Child Study Team. I would take Bill to the meeting and a notebook. I would express my concerns over what is happening and try to enlist their help. I know the principal sounds like a jerk. But let's face it, these people have tenure and you need them on your side. Do NOT tell her she cannot speak to your daughter without you present. Teachers and administrator's stick together like doctors. Try to make them feel that you(her family) wants to work with the "team" at school to help Tori throught this rough period.

Then, if that does not work, go to the Superintendant of Schools and make a BIG fuss, but stay calm at all times when speaking to them so they can't call you an hysterical parent and blame everything on you.
