[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Bullied? How?[/quote] Poke fun at. Tell him that it's for girls/gays, etc. They'll suggest more boyish things for him to do instead, like sports and refuse to attend his recitals. It's just one part of his life, which is why I haven't jumped to more extreme measures, but I feel like it's coming to that point... :( I did have a talk with everyone, but this has continued to happen when he's with them and away from me and as he's gotten older, he has noticed that all other kids have extended family attending recitals and for him, it's just DH and me. [/quote] Have one more talk. "Not only are your comments sexist and homophobic, but they are hurtful. Larlo loves you and looks up to you, and you are knowingly hurting his feelings. You either stop with the comments, or you won't see him as much, because I am not going to continue to make my child listen to the people who are supposed to love him tear him down."[/quote]
