Good morning,
I am here again, looking for some wisdom. My son came back home from school yesterday saying that he was left standing sad on his own without any friends to play with at playtime. He says that he wants to play only with boys, the same ones who methodically refuse to play with him. I am telling him that although it is sad to be left alone and that I am glad he is telling me and the teachers, he needs to be brave enough and go look for someone else. The teachers are not doing that much in that respect, as they say they are only looking after him academically. It is a school after all and although I do not fully agree, I can see their point. Have you got any advice on how to make my child realise there are other children who might be interested in playing with him, please? He can be a bit rigid when it comes to this subject because he strongly believes it is right to only be with boys at playtime. I do not want to hurt his feelings more or say things I should not.
Thank you for your time
