[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Teenage boys suck at emotional intelligence and empathy.

They may or may not realize that they are making their friend feel abandoned. I would try to explain this to your DS, but also empower him to tell his friends how their actions are making him feel. Learning how to advocate for yourself and expressing your needs and expectations in any relationship is a key development for healthy connections.[/quote]

This is great advice.

It can be hard to know when to reach out if someone is sick or injured.

I'd also consider reaching out to the coach and the school guidance counselor. A good coach would hopefully nudge the teammates to reach out to foster team building community. A gift guidance counselor might be able to do zoom check ins at the very least.

And if you can afford therapy and your kids is willing, great idea. I'd consider a local office that you might be able to transition to in person, but wouldn't can be long so online might be okay.[/quote]
