[quote=Anonymous]Try to cultivate similar interests to the other boys in the class. At this age it's things like Minecraft, Pokemon, etc. You need to find the video game/app de jour and let him get good at it. My kid is very good at games so many kids want to have playdates with him and it gets him respect from his peers. DS has never been bullied or picked on even when he was having a lot of issues at school. The school counselor plays a lot of board games with DS to teach him gamesmanship - specifically to be a good loser and not to gloat too much when winning. You can do this at home too. The kid who can be a BFF may not be the "easiest" kid in the class so keep an open mind. My kid and his BFF can both be very difficult in their way but together they really complement each other and are "good" together. Our school lets them sit together during lunch as a reward and we have used playdates as rewards too.[/quote]
