[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I got the exact same call 15 years ago. So funny.

Anyway, let him do it once; but honestly, the other kids start to figure this out, and the super savvy girls start to ostracize these kids by 3rd or 4th grade. It is great for the kids who need it, but if yours doesn't, there is no good reason to create the impression among classmates that they do. For my kid it became sort of a self-fulfilling prophecy. Suddenly, he was being bullied and did need it.[/quote]
I used to be an ES teacher- our school psychologist didn't do groups like this, but our counselor did and she always, always, always included a wide range of kids in "lunch bunch" groups- kids who needed the support, kids who were selected as role models to keep the convo flowing, kids who just wanted to be a part of it and weren't high or low either way...it just wasn't an issue. And if kids were getting ostracized by others for it...well that's a separate concern and THAT needs to be dealt with. I would never put up with that.[/quote]
