[quote=Anonymous]I have a 4th grade boy. My kid does quite a bit of this. It's horrible. I hate it. I've tried everything. He tells me that all the boys do it and that it's funny and no one takes it seriously. The saddest thing is in the carpool some of the kids will be like "I stopped playing baseball because I'm trash at it, ha ha!" I don't know what else to do at this point, it's just baked into the culture. I've repeatedly tried to talk to my son when I see more eggregious examples of this, but he just stomps off. I'm not sure punishing him would be helpful. Hopefully they grow out of it? [/quote]
