[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Np. I am so sorry this happened. My thoughts:

1. Tell the school. I’m no longer in DMV but at our public kids can be disciplined for activities that take place outside school. They may be able to help determine whether anything has been uploaded to social media.

[b]You also don’t want your kid to have any classes with these boys and they should have different lunch periods. [/b]

2. Tell the coach. He has a problem on his team and needs to know.

3. Tell the parents. I like the idea of a group email to all of them. You shouldn’t have to send 14 separate emails.

4. Help for your son: therapist to process the incident and confirm it was not his fault. Also, to increase confidence so he learns that these guys are not his friends and that he should not aspire to be friends with him.

Good luck and please keep us posted. Your kid sounds awesome and he does not need to hang out with these jerks. [/quote]

This is unnecessary and very likely impossible.[/quote]

Restraining order[/quote]

At that point it’s easier to switch schools.[/quote]

Only 5 of the kids go to the same school as DS.  He has his own friends at school outside these boys.

But these boys (soccer boys) are of a higher social status and could make DS life hell if the wish.  He knows that.

When will this social status crap end.  They already made his life miserable.   He needs to make friends with the football, hockey and lacrosse players if your concern is them bullying him. Soccer isn’t exactly known for, well, anything in the US except children’s activities.  Maybe a new sport would help. [/quote]

Oh, he is in track too.  He’s a so-so soccer player on a so-so team but he’s very talented as a long distance runner.  [b]Obviously also not a super respected sport[/b], but he truly excels.[/quote]
This is such a weird comment. [/quote]

OP I’m beginning to think you’re a troll or a bored teenager obsessed with social status. If you are not, then please stop trying to decide what’s respected or not, what’s where in a social hierarchy, etc. It’s not clear if your son plays hs soccer or just club. Regardless he should drop both since he doesn’t sound great and his team is not adding anything to his life. Instead put him in hs cross country (same season as soccer anyways), indoor and outdoor track. [/quote]

I also suspect OP is a troll. Don't most soccer leagues end the season in May? [/quote]

I suspect your not very bright. I think you and PP are the trolls. Can’t anyone just come on here and ask for support or advice without everyone trying to be a modern Sherlock Holmes and find flaws and pick it apart. Even if soccer ended in May who gives a F? My kids play on teams that ended in May and they all still get together over the summer as a team for things like this. Honestly, you can really see the adults here who probably spawned the very same kinds of kids who do stuff like this to others. [/quote]

But they had practice yesterday  [/quote]

This does seem suspect. All of the kids are done, except the ones going to championships. This means there’s a very narrow set of kids this could be. OP if your son is on the team I’m guessing he’s on, that culture is highly toxic.[/quote]There are summer rec leagues, summer skills camps, etc. [/quote]
