Ds is year 8 and having trouble with some boys calling him names before some classes, when they see him etc. The names used don’t include offensive language and are based on a cartoon character ds’s name resembles. It is obviously bothering him a bit but thus far dh and I have encouraged him to ignore/laugh it off - they obviously do it for a reaction....but given it has been ongoing throughout this term I’m worried it may degenerate into something worse. Dh & I both went to boarding schools where there was very little home contact so in our experience you just grin & bare it....but actually should we be doing something about this and contacting school? Or is that a snowflake reaction?!
