[quote=Anonymous]If I am reading your post correct — your teen admitted to you some degree of nasty talk he did making fun of another boy behind his back.  The other boy found out your son was making mean comments behind his back and was angry at your son.  The school intervened before the boy your son was nasty to to  escalate.  And now you are angry your son was verbally reprimanded for being cruel, which he was. I would say the school did a great job at preventing a potential incident from happening and punishing the child who was at fault, your son.  The school seems to gave a better handle on parenting then you do at the moment.  Talk to your son about not being a jerk and not making fun of his peers behind their backs.  And alert him that outside of school corridors, if he does make fun of other children he could end up with consequences from his victims.  If your son goes  around making fun of peers behind their backs, than your son needs to know the teen he is making fun of could retaliate.  Better yet you should teach your child not to make fun of his peers. [/quote]
