Here's a little background- My son is in the Sixth Grade and I feel his self esteem is a little low. He's a very smart child but when he's around children that are aggresive or likes to trash talk alot (ex. U can't play basketball or I'm going to knock you out) my son either cries or stands their and just takes the abuse. There's been plenty of times when I ask him why does he cry or why can't he respond with a simple stop talking to me like that or I can play ball- And my son tells me it doesn't bother him, but when the subject comes up he begins to cry with me. I've taken my son to Karate class before when he was 6 or 7 years old but we stopped. My son says he does not want to go to these classes... and he's not interested in Karate. He's around children at school and a couple a days out of the week he plays outside with the neighbors. I don't agree with "play fighting" or "play wrestling" and nor does my son.... but I see many boys love too. I see this is another time when my son becomes upset and begins to cry when boys try to "play fight" with him. Any other time my son is a happy silly young boy except when someone becomes upset! Please give advice on other ways I can help raise his self esteem!
