HELP! My son is being bullied.

hopefillsme

My 11 year old son writes a blog about his life, abs what it's like to be awesomely Aspergers. Except it doesn't feel very awesome this week. He is experiencing ongoing bullying and is struggling to cope.

if you have a moment please do visit his blog and send him a word of encouragement . if you enjoy reading and/or relate in any way to his outlook and experiences in life in general... Please do comment or even better, 'follow' his blog to share our journey

i hope through his honesty that others feel they are not alone. He'd love to make friends...

please take a look

any parenting thoughts welcome on the blog too... It's sort of a joint venture with me ... Mum!

ive been to visit the headteacher today at school and really hoping it gets addressed in the right way ....

  • Hi, I was bullied in school as well, I was a shy skinny little runt of a kid who had very few friends. I enjoyed my own company and didn't really socialise or interact with others.

    Fast forward a few years, those people that picked on me and made my life a misery, those "hip" kids are now all life's losers, either no jobs or in dead end jobs with no prospects. Take me as an example if you want, I've only just realised that it's highly likely that I have Aspergers, however, I joined the Army and became a Royal Engineer. A Bomb Disposal Engineer to be precise, then after that I was a Police officer for 10 years. Those kids who are picking on him now will probably end up the same way.

    It's not nice being bullied, approach the school and explain the situation, are they aware that your boy has Aspergers? It's difficult, but tell him not to let them grind him down, THEY are the losers, where he will blossom into someone that has the potential to get on in life and be successful.
