[quote=Anonymous]Kids will find any reason to pick on another child. My son's weight is PERFECT!!! Not just according to me but the doctor as well but kids who look anorexic will of course be jealous of his perfect weight and say things to him. Encourage your son to be who he is, always show him you love him. If his weight is a issue then don't talk to him about his weight, instead each day take a family 1 or 2 mile walk. Make excuses to get him out of the house to exercise because this helps him psychologically plus if he lost a few pounds it would help his self esteem. Make sure to encourage healthy food choices as well... kids tend to eat what they see us parents eat so make sure to set a good example for him. lastly I can't stress enough for you to always say nice things to him, point out the good things about him (smart, funny, kind hearted etc.) If it gets to bad, request to move him to another school. Belive it or not each school is different. In some schools the kids are more socially educated then others because the teachers and principals are better and helped raise the kids up better. Don't try to interfer to much at the school because kids notice and it will just give them more to abuse him with. Also, try to enourage him to have a high self esteem. These little brats feed off of his reactions. If he ignores them then picking on him will become boring and they will move on to the next victim. If he reacts or says things to them then that is like food that feeds them and their actions. Teach him not just to ignore but how to point out to the other kids that he's happy the way he is and if they don't like him then they can go to hell. The stronger his personality and self esteem the better he will be able to tell these brats where they can put it. I wish you and him all the best![/quote]
