He is a very outspoken young man who loves to be active but he is getting so stressed this year due to a few teachers and its to the point his stomach hurts daily. We went thru this awhile back and it seemed to get better for him when a few people in leadership were no longer around him but it seems they have all been talking and he knows it and its making it hard for him to have any enjoyment this year, he just feels like they are picking now. The few teachers and counselor he talks to say they know how these others are but there's basically nothing they can do about it. I know they need to learn to cope in the real world but in the 8th grade they should be able to enjoy some of it. GreatSchools en-us zoeyallheart ask him if there are bullies there or mean teachers. or you can just ask him why does he want to. http://community.greatschools.net/q-and-a/301828/My-child-wants-to-change-schools-should-i-let-him-if-its-possible?cpage=1#comment_334462 5100.334462 Tue, 20 Jan 2009 17:43:41 -0800 ramom09 I know it is not something that anyone should make a habit of, but I am actually switching my 6th grader to another school not because of the kids, but ... http://community.greatschools.net/q-and-a/301828/My-child-wants-to-change-schools-should-i-let-him-if-its-possible?cpage=1#comment_316969 5100.316969 Sat, 03 Jan 2009 19:42:18 -0800 8grdmom oops i accidently hit reply twice and couldnt figure out how to delete one, sorry. http://community.greatschools.net/q-and-a/301828/My-child-wants-to-change-schools-should-i-let-him-if-its-possible?cpage=1#comment_302802 5100.302802 Thu, 11 Dec 2008 19:27:29 -0800 8grdmom We have decided to make him stay and work through it but hes definitely not ADHD, they thought he may have it when he was younger but the Dr said ... http://community.greatschools.net/q-and-a/301828/My-child-wants-to-change-schools-should-i-let-him-if-its-possible?cpage=1#comment_302801 5100.302801 Thu, 11 Dec 2008 19:27:28 -0800 healthy11 I'm having a hard time understanding....Can you explain how "people in leadership have all been talking" and that impacts your son negatively as he's attending his daily classes?
