DH got called into the school office this morning to talk about DS3. He's only 8 and the school have accused him of bullying. He and his friends have been laughing at a boy who spilt a drink on himself, saying he'd wet himself. It started as a joke but has continued for nearly a week and they've been calling him all sorts of names. Clearly DH and I have spoken to him and revoked all privileges, he can't go on the Xbox, use the iPad, watch TV etc. He's always been a bit of a troublemaker, but we never expected anything like that. The school have suggested moving him up a year in the past as they think he plays up because he's quite smart. I doubt they're going to suggest that again though now.
Is he normal? It worries me a bit bullying at that age. Makes me concerned about how he's going to turn out. Also, does anyone have any more advice on how we can deal with this? DH and I have another meeting at the school tomorrow to discuss it. I suspect he may well be excluded which is worrying me because both DH and I work full time.
