[quote=Anonymous]My kid, who is also super sarcastic and a bit of a moody loner, is stereotyped by other children as the likely next school shooter. Kids joke about it.  They reported him to the counselors, etc.

He is a bit non-conformist and verbally mean.  Other kids that think they are sweet, and wonderful, and caring have actually been sabotaging little jerks.

He is usually cheerful at home and we have no risk factors.  He hated middle school but high school is much better because there is finally lots of tracking for the brighter and harder working students.

So I'm aware that people feel that my kid is the mean kid but I know for sure that it's not all his personality.

I used to tell people just to leave him alone.  No counseling, no jollying, no calling on, no rearranging seats.  Just let the bear rest in his cage (school) and there will be no verbal paw swipes.

It's been funny to me to see the outcomes of the "nice
kids" who caused my son problems.  They have lost popularity in high school.  And one came to realize he falsely overstated my son's issues and caused him real problems.  That kid expressed guilt.  Good.[/quote]
