ds2 (7) came out of school quite upset today. He said everyone in his class had been laughing at his writing and saying it was scruffy and babyish and that his drawings were crap and were just squiggles.
He's usually very proud of his drawings and so I think this upset him even more.
I've never had problems with DS2 before, he's always been the class clown so the kids tend to like him...he's the "difficult one", if ever we have a problem at school, it is usually that DS has done something wrong or "silly".
Thanks to his pretty bad behaviour, he's gotten himself a "name" within the school now and I've found that the teachers dont tend to take him seriously anymore. Last time I complained that the kids kept pulling his hood off his coat (fastens on with press studs) the teacher said "oh, I'm sure he wasn't innocent in it either, he's usually the one that starts it".
So I'm reluctant to go in about it, I know he has taken the mick out of other kids in the past too, but he seemed quite upset and I can't help feeling sorry for him. Am I being too soft?
