[quote=Anonymous]It's tough to be book smart without the social smarts to go along with it. It will get better. But I'd just work at strengthening his social skills. Getting defensive will not work. He's got to find a way to shoulder it but then lightly fling some trash talk back. I'd work on things he can say back. A common cheer at TJHSST back when it started in the 90s and they were losing basketball or football games was "hey hey it's ok, you're gonna work for us one day". He does need to find some nerd friends.[/quote]
