My son is in year 2 and since reception has had one very close friend who he has played with throughout
They are both quite loud and boisterous and at times the teachers have tried to get them to explore other friendships but it's never worked so there have been a few playground incidents on both sides where the boisterousness has got out of hand
Unfortunately it doesn't matter how many play dates I host with other children, as whilst they get on well whilst at my home / theirs once they are back in a school environment they go back to the other friends, sometimes being a little mean to my son as he isn't part of the group
They are quite an academic class and my son, whilst bright is one of the younger children in the year so quite immature in comparison.
Anyhow; his best friend left over the Easter holidays and he has paired himself up with the new boy who started who seems to be quite naughty; saying rude words, not listening in class and so on, so much so the teacher has called me in to discuss it.
I don't know what to do, he just doesn't seem to fit in anywhere and the teacher is concerned this friendship will prove detrimental.
The mum of the boy seems lovely and I've tried to make conversation as initially was over the moon he had found a new friend but her English is limited and she wasn't interested in having any play dates outside school and said school is just to educate not to make friends so that fell flat
What can I do?
Feeling really sad for my little boy
