That really depends on what school you child goes to. I would say to first talk to the teacher about it. If that doesn't help then talk to the principal. If that doesn't help you might have to try to contact the parent or the superintendent. I know at Miami elementary the kids all teased my daughter in kindergarten because she was much smaller than all of the other kids. They would hit her and call her midget and her teacher didn't seem to want to do anything about it. I told the principal but still nothing was done. But that's just the way Miami elementary works...they're a do nothing school.

I'm sorry for what your son is going through,have you talked to the principal at your sons school,i mean the teacher may get frustrated but that's her job to educate kids .

My son is in the first grade. He has a trach. Therefore he cannot speak. There is a huge communication gap. It frusterates everyone involved from the teacher to the students and my son the most.
