[quote=Anonymous]I'm sorry, I know how hard this can be as a parent. Are his feelings getting hurt, or does he seem impervious to the taunts? In terms of self-advocacy, you can apply the same concepts you've taught him to use at school for sports. If kids are telling him he can't play, then he should say, "ok, maybe another time" just like he would in any other situation. When kids are taunting and being mean, teach him some responses like PPs above have suggested. Is he playing with kids his own age? These kids seem pretty vicious for being so young. In my experience, girls that age can be pretty mean but most 5 year old boys are kind of oblivious and just want to run around and play. [/quote]
