[quote=Anonymous]OP, this stinks. I feel sorry for your DS. I have a similarly sized son. he is 9, and 4'9"/77lbs, though his build is quite lean and muscular, and he's super athletic so he's never been called fat, but he has often been called out by peers for being so much taller and he used to be really self conscious about it. I don't feel badly for telling him that being tall is a positive attribute and that the other boys are jealous because they are short. If it has been going on this long and the teacher doesn't do anything about it, she probably knows and is ignoring it, so you just need to give him whatever tools he needs to feel good about himself. Thankfully the year is more than halfway over. [/quote]
