I am increasingly concerned about my DS1 who has jst turned 14.
For a while now he has been doing everything possible to avoid social contact with other kids.About 3 months ago he started to become very distant and cold.eventually he opened up that he felt every body was ganging up on him at school.Talking down to him,ignoring him ,making fun of him.
He has just come back from a weeks school trip.he says one boy in particular put him down all the time ,makeing fun of everything e said and then teasing him when he didn't say anything. From what he says I don't think really he gets teased more than anyone else , but he always sticks up for someone being bullied and never fights back physically.So i think people feel 'safe' teasing or hitting him
He say he feels sad all the time and seems to have very low self esteem.he goes to a grammar school and is in gthe bottom half of the class.
What should I do ?
