My 14 year old son has never had many friends and I think he kind of got used to it. He's obviously at secondary now and he does have a couple of friends who are 'unpopular' like him but the majority don't involve themselves with DS or these other boys. I don't really know why.
They like rock music, have long hair and out of school wear 'alternative' clothing when all the other kids wear trendy stuff. Is this really enough to alienate kids to this degree??
Anyway he says he isn't bothered and is glad to be different but I see all the other teens laughing and joking around town and feel sorry for DS and these other boys and can't understand why they're unpopular, they're good kids!
