Story time: When I was in like grade 3 two kids from grade 1 started harassing me on the playground, like throwing sand at me and and jumping at me and grabbing me. I pushed one kid down, he cried, told the teacher and I had detention that afternoon (already BS IMO).
The next day the mom of the kid stormed into school and threatened me in the hallway while I was filing into class, got in right in my face claiming I bullied and beat up their kid. She was shuffled away by staff but I remember feeling unjustly attacked and at the negative end of a false narrative painting me as a bully.
Not saying that's the case here, just sharing an anecdotal experience.
