Also sometimes more immature kids will say other kids are mean to them, and it’s because these kids are annoying to others and don’t have boundaries or take social cues. So something being nice and trying to fade away doesn’t work.

OP here. This is an interesting insight, and my DS is probably a little immature compared to his peers. [/quote]

I mean, he’s young. His ex friend probably dropped him which SUCKS and he didn’t  pick up on it for awhile, understandable but it built resentment in the other kid, who probably dropped subtle signs. And the thing is, the other kids are only a few steps in maturity above him so they don’t have the skills to kindly communicate either. People in here act like the “other kids” basically have the maturity of adults while their kid is just not expected to even behave at age level, like they also aren’t all kids too.

Your best bet is to distract and build up his friendships with kids more his speed. The lost friendship hurts, and the mean behavior makes the wound bleed. The more he has anxiety about his ex friend, the more “annoying” he probably behaves. I say that as someone with raging adhd, trust me I know I am amplified when I’m anxious.

I personally think calling the school and making a big case out of it will make it worse for your son. Schools can only put on a show of prevention as they aren’t there all the time. Bring it up but more for problem solving. I’d at least request class placement next year w this kid not in his classes, and seperate as much as teachers can in meantime.
