[quote=Anonymous]Anyone read the old classic 'The Hundred Dresses' by Eleanor Estes? Similar story- a non-dellusional girl claims she has 100 dresses and talks about them constantly, leading to teasing and unfriending. In the end, the attention she got from her 'stories' lights a spark that carries her through a painful part of life. Letting them think what they want to think isn't bad. Thinking of a future in basketball may be how this kid is coping with fear of the future, or inadequacy amoung peers. He may be wanting attention- subconsiously even negative attention. Remind the kids not to bully or tease him about it. Just let it go and change the subject. [/quote]
