[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Kids were working in a group project of 2. Other kid called my kid f ing stupid. My kid is super sensitive and just cried to me after school.

If we mention it to the teacher I am afraid the kid will be even worse to my son the rest of year and 6 more years through high school.

If I don’t mention it, I worry about my kid and be bullied even more through the year and won’t tell me since I won’t help him now.

I told him to try and make things nice on Tuesday. To give it one more try and let things cool off.

Anyone been there? Any advice please? [/quote]

What do you mean by “try and make things nice”?

Have you considered therapy for your child OP? It’s not normal for a 7th grader to come home and cry about something so trivial as name calling.[/quote]

I disagree. Her child is sensitive, and it obviously hit a nerve to be called “stupid.” It was a pretty unkind comment. I’m not saying her son doesn’t need to develop resilience, but let’s not pathologize his reaction; it’s within the range of normal. He didn’t cry at school, and he obviously trusts his parents enough to open up to them. [/quote]
