[quote=Anonymous]DS (7) is being bullied for doing ballet for a couple years now and loves.. but not by other children, by adults. Mostly other family members and family friends. I've tried talking to them, but they won't change their ways. It's starting to take a toll on him and he sways back and forth now from wanting to continue vs. not wanting to. I've always thought of my family as being progressive liberals until this started to come up and it seems like the more years DS keeps doing it, the more of a problem they feel like it is. These are people he looks up to and obviously have a impact on his self-esteem, but I hate that they're doing this to him. He's such an insecure and quiet kid and it's one of the few activities where he seems to come out of his shell. What can I do? [/quote]
