[quote=Anonymous]We went through something very similar with my 9 yr old DS. He also didn't want us to intervene. He said he wanted to handle it. I think at some point, as a parent, you do need to back off and let the kid handle being teased. I would keep track of it to make sure it doesn't get out of hand, but give your kid some room to handle it. You can't protect your kid forever, and it would be better to teach your kids to deal with it rather than always coming to the rescue - kind of like teaching a person to fish rather than giving them the fish.. you know what I mean. You said your older DSs were nice to her. Maybe you could ask your DSs how your DD should handle it. Get a glimpse into the inner workings of a 9 yr old boy's brain. [/quote]
