My now nearly 7 yo was bullied at school last year and had no help from his teacher to change it. He has now moved school and because of aggressive behaviour towards other children and being unsettled during group and class tasks (not when he has to concentrate on tasks on his own) he has been referred to the psych. The psyhc. wants to assess him for Asperger's because he says he doesn't make eye contact with him (or his teacher, but he does make good eye contact with us) and hasn't made friends at school (his teacher says because of aggressive behaviour he puts kids off) although he did have a close friend for some time. He is an ID twin and has an older brother. I am driving myself mad looking up everything I can on the internet about Asperger's and am more and more convinced that his behaviour is the results of the bullying. Can anyone tell me the effects bullying had on their young child at school. I am particularly interested in effects on eye contact and interaction with other kids.
