[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Middle school kids suck, period. When I was younger I used to be a teachers aide in middle school programs, and it’s just a terrible age. Your kid will need to find himself and gain the confidence to turn around and tell those kids trash talking him to eff off and toss something right back. Bullying works by picking off the perceived weakest in the group. If it doesn’t work, it loses its luster. That being said, my non-sporty kid went through APS schools and never got crap from anyone, and he’s not particularly confident. I can’t see any APS middle school being so anti science that there isn’t someone else to hang with. It sounds like he’s focused on one group of kids and isn’t looking at all the other kids in school. Your kid sounds like he’s in the group that never gave my kid the time of day - but my son and his cohort were there the whole time. So maybe see where the “dorky weirdos” are and find a new tribe. And also, girls exist. My son’s closer friends are female.[/quote] The point about girls being friends is a good one. Some of these non-bro energy boys, girls are great friend options.[/quote]
