[quote=Anonymous]That’s tough. It does sound like he’s a sensitive kid and the comments from his peers are really getting to him. There’s not much you can do about that, of course. But you can treat him a little more gently at home. If he has both an older brother and a younger (toddler) sister, he’s in the middle and probably feels left out or ignored at times. Maybe you can carve out more one on one time with him at home. Does he have his own space that he can retreat to at home without his parents/siblings around? With his own toys and belongings that he can play with without having to “share” (in his mind, “give up” to his younger sister)? You want them to be mature and self-sacrificing, but if your kid is in cub scouts he’s, what, 5-7 years old? So I think a little perspective on your part is in order here. [/quote]
