I know you don't want to be dealing with this mess for the rest of the school year. :-/Mandyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00415510811585368037noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8639909808542124326.post-52852380844778864112016-10-27T10:04:44.515-05:002016-10-27T10:04:44.515-05:00Mandy, I don't know what the write answers are...Mandy, I don't know what the write answers are for this. Isaak does have other really good friends in the class. He does well in school. The whole incident with this one kid was getting out of hand. I guess they were saying things in class. It was the teacher's idea to have them not talk to one another. It was in hopes that they would get over it, and be civil. I just didn't want Isaak to be kicked to the curb with the other friends in the group. The other 2 are really nice, and they play well. It's just that those 2 like the one that Isaak's having problems with. Drama for boys can be just as bad as drama for girls I guess. If it gets worse they will go talk to the councilor.

I mean what is that teaching them? That they should ignore one another? I mean Issak's response at the end of the experiment is exactly what I would expect "why should I talk to him now?" <br /><br />Maybe the two aren't meant to be friends. Maybe this is even the wrong circle of friends for Issak to begin with. Or maybe the counselor can help? Have you and Issak tried to schedule play dates with the other friends? Maybe the focus shouldn't be on the one friend in particular and instead be on the other people who do consider him a friend and are nice to him.<br /><br />Then again, as always, I'm not a parent/counselor/teacher, so all I can do is spout ideas. Hopefully someone comes up with something that works, and Issak is able to find peace at school and among friends (whether new or old). :-/Mandyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00415510811585368037noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8639909808542124326.post-85626676672137955782016-10-26T17:17:25.764-05:002016-10-26T17:17:25.764-05:00Broxton has a bully situation at school.

Allison is totally opposite and will forgive and forget every trespass that comes upon her. It drives me insane. I wish we could both just meet in the middle sometimes. I do hope "Zeek" has a better week this week!

I took him out school and started him on martial arts and dirt bikes, and it worked out well. He learned more than he would have, did not have to put up with bullies, and was out of an environment where you were not allowed to defend yourself. I feel for you, honest to God. I remember how my wife and I felt when he was having all that trouble and was unhappy.
