Hi new here... just saw my son bullied

Hi Im Kat

Feeling frustrated and upset I have no one in my friendship circle who understands

I have a son of 8 who has Autism... he attends a mainstream school and wanted to join the after school club I went to sign him up and while we were there I heard a boy in his year say to a goup of boys...

"yuk look its him, what is he doing here who said he could come that dumb boy"

his friends told him to be queit coz his mum was there and that he shouldnt say it in front of me...

So now I feel crushed, angry and torn because I dont know what happensd when I'm not around

and my son doesnt really understand when people are mean to him he wouldnt even realise unless it was physicalSealed

 I'm contemplating putting him in a special school I just dont want him picked on... any thoughts or comments welcome

  • Your bulllying experience sounds awful and so tactical... thats the problem at 8 you actually are very aware of what you are doing.

    I was bullied at school also and it greatly effected my self esteem and even as an adult you hear the odd snide commment.

    But witnessing the cruelness of that child toward my own just tore me up I was so angry that tears came to my eyes... so im disapointed that Ididnt handle it better I told the supervisor who spoke to him but its not enough for me

    Thank you for your response Azalea
