[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous] My 14-year-old son is being teased at school and called gay, which is bothering him. Just to clarify, he’s straight. The comments stem from the way he talks, but he has speech-related issues and is high-functioning autistic. How can we best support him in dealing with this.[/quote] Teach him to ignore it, and teach him how to throw and properly land a punch. If you want to go above and beyond, try to teach him to have compassion for the poorly-raised idiots behaving this way, but that's not a requirement. You can tell the school administrators, but having someone else call out your bully only tends to result in more bullying because they were able to get a rise out of you, and the consequences are typically minor. If you're going to address the behavior, a punch is better than a comeback. Beat a bully back and they stop.[/quote]
