Need advice on where to go from here

Yeah in the beginning we were thinking awkward kid too but just because he is starting to get more physical after she’s told him to stop I’m getting more cautious. We’ll see that she is upset and acting kind of off when she come home from school, so that’s when I start to pry a little. And that’s when it’ll come out that he did this or that. I definitely hope me bugging her for more details isn’t making things worse, I don’t think it is. We’ve been trying to explain to her that she needs to use her voice and stand up for herself, so far she’s been doing good. But seems to be struggling a little when it comes to this boy and I don’t know if it’s because he makes her uncomfortable or if it’s something else. Because she’s told us about other little issues involving other kids. Didn’t have to even ask her about it, she’d come home and say “mom, dad, this kid did this and I said this”. You could see she was proud for standing up for herself. But when she talks about this boy, she gets quiet and upset and doesn’t want to go into any details. Just another reason why I’m more concerned. Pretty much her behavior about him vs her behavior with other kids she’s had minor issues with, like the difference makes me more concerned.
