[quote=Anonymous]In our family we are all short. One son was so small we went to children's hospital to make sure growth was normal and there wasn't any abnormality. You might want to do that too. If there is something to treat, they will tell you. As far as advice, I recommend building positive self-esteem - this can be through ANYTHING he sparks to. All kids are different, but lean into the things that make him feel positive and capable of doing anything. As for the height, reinforce that we are all different -- height, weight, skin color, hair. He is perfect just the way he is. Also, helpful to have a few comebacks to the snarky comments. other kids can be mean. [/quote]
