[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP here. We let the counselor know and she is reaching out to the counselor assigned to the boy. I did not feel comfortable texting the boy myself because I don't know him well enough to know how stable he is, but the counselor suggested we have him text something like,  "I am sorry I don't have the time to hang out. You are a great kid, but getting so many texts makes me really uncomfortable. I will not be responding to more texts." Then he blocked the number. Not sure how I feel about that because again I don't know the child's level of emotional well being and what he can handle. I won't reach out to the mom because I do know [b]she is a pistol when it comes to defending her son and she is at the school a lot causing trouble.[/b]

I'm sure I will get some backlash, but I support my child's  right to decline an invite from someone he already have chances to.[/quote]

The bolded is the issue. She's probably obnoxious and highly controlling at home too and telling her kid to keep pushing your son and your son will eventually say yes.

Pretty sad, but in this day and age and country, my mind went to a potential school shooting threat. I hope the counselors can get the boy the support he needs.[/quote]
