[quote=Anonymous]God, I hear you! I have to remember that the mean kids are victims too - victims of bad parenting and self-esteem issues. When I talk to my son (smaller than the other boys and wears glasses but not SN) about the mean boys in his class, I always ask him what he thinks is wrong or broken in those boys that makes them act that way. We talk a lot about inclusion and being kind to them even though they are mean. We also talk about “reading the room” and knowing when to step away and ignore them. It’s so hard. I really wanted to pull a “Hand That Rocks The Cradle” move an go twist one little boy’s arm and threaten him when he kept punching my son in preK. Instead we talked to the teacher, the principal and the boy’s parents along with continued conversations with my son. [/quote]
