[QUOTE="Andy, post: 210545, member: 5096"] Is the Catholic School by any chance small? How many kids in his classroom? Is he having difficulty fitting in with the kids who may have built bonds from being together for years? Last year when my difficult child fell apart, he pretty much lost the full first quarter of school. By the time he returned to school ready to renew relationships, the other boys had already set up the friendships for the year and in his work to try to get back into the group, difficult child ruined his previous relationships with innappropriate behaviors. difficult child felt so left out and angry that he did a lot of name calling and did threaten kids a few times. All out of anger because they purposely left him out of things. I think it is really hard for kids in 6th grade to make friends. Almost all kids would rather spend time with those friends they already know than to take a chance of becoming friends with a new person. Kids know that each of them can be mean with new information and you need to give information to make a friend. Why bother making another friend when the one(s) you have are satisfying your social needs already? You can ask him and his teacher how he is fitting in. If you find that this is an issue (don't discount any other's inputs - I am just trying to find ways to make life easier - others know more on how to direct you into finding out medical causes), ask the teacher which kids she feels are best chances of being good friends with difficult child. You can then try to find times outside of school for those kids to have individual time with difficult child. [/QUOTE]
