It might have sounded really horrible if he expressed it to anyone, but in a way, Matthew was glad Will wasn't specifically targeted by this kid, or well he was, but he wasn't the only one. It wasn't that he wanted other children to be hurt like his son had been, but he felt like it would be less damaging to Will if he knew it was just a bunch of kids being mean and nothing about him specifically.
It still saddened him to no end that this had been going on and hurting Will, and he hadn't been doing anything about it though. He reached out and but a gentle hand on Will's shoulder, he'd hug him later, and treat him to ice cream, and play his video games with him, anything to make him feel better.
For now, though, he turned back to Mr Davis, "We can not let Will come to a school where things like this are happening, we want him to be safe and feel safe."
"I assure you we won't let this happen again," Mr Davis said, "We'll be calling Eric's parents, and have a talk with them and his friends, we might want to share a word or two with Will again later, but I wouldn't want to keep him since he is hurt. The important thing is that we know this is going on, and we will do our best to resolve it." It was clear Mr Davis was adding that last part to assure Matthew something would be done.
"It will be resolved," Matthew corrected him. Mr Davis looked a little taken aback but nodded. The exchanged another couple of words and then he let the Harris-Quinn family leave, though he kept Eric there to talk. When they finally were out the door Matthew pulled Will into a hug, no classmates was there to see so he figured it was okay, "Will, are you alright, do we need to see if the nurse is still in?"
