Basically just that.
DS is almost 9.
He has always been a sensitive child and has always cried easily. This doesn't bother me as such, particularly as he is a boy I'm all for him feeling that he is able to cry and express his feelings without feeling that he shouldn't. However, he isn't very forthcoming with his feelings and tends to just pretend everything is fine and I will only find out that it isn't from someone else long after the fact.
He is having councilling at school, first 1:1 now in a group session as it was found that he wasn't making much progress 1:1.
I worry that, particularly as he gets older the fact that he cries all the time will become more and more difficult and he will get the piss taken out of him by other kids. This is already happening to an extent and when it does he is starting to lash out physically (probably in an attempt to 'prove' that he is tough etc.) He will be going to secondary school in a few years and I'm so worried that this will still be a problem that will get exponentially worse.
Aibu for worrying about this and not know how to improve the situation?
