Starting school can be a very confusing time for many kids. Being around all new classmates can sometimes make things stressful.
Starting school can be a very confusing time for many kids. Being around all new classmates can sometimes make things stressful.
Not all kids make the adjustment into a full day of school super easily.
Kids at that age can be pretty mean without realizing how much it can impact another person.
Her mom, Erica Calculli, said that Lydia was being bullied by a lot of the kids at school and would come home crying.
One day, Lydia came home with a bruised eye.
“She told me that a bunch of girls and one boy hit her and a girl threw a shoe at her eye,” Erica told local news station WTSP.
However, she said they didn't do much to help the situation.
She reached out to Jack Asbury, a man from Spring Hill who's known as their "local Batman."
Calculli posted the photos online and showcased how touching the moment was.
She wrote:
"I really hope she’s more comfortable at school now, and I can’t wait to talk to her when she gets home. Thank you again, Jack!"
“I made a new friend today. This is Lydia.
She was being bullied at school … to the point she didn’t want to go. So I reached out and asked her if I could walk her to school."
“Hopefully this will help her overcome the fear, knowing who has her back.”
Anyone else on the verge of tears after reading this? Way to save the day, Batman.
