So the teen room supervisors tell us that the kid who was picking on my son is having conflicts with everybody. They say my son hasn't had any conflicts other than the usual they see and is getting along great with the other kids. 8O :!:

I'm not sure if anything more needs to be done; it sounds like they have a handle on the situation. I wish I knew whether my son had noticed the behavior. He seemed totally oblivious but he often takes in more than it appears.

Is your son handling those conflicts OK? Sometimes our kids are more affected by certain conflicts than NT kids; less able to "brush it off." I guess that is what I would use to decide if more needs to be done; I have been known to say to the school, "I don't care if it's what everyone has to deal with it, my one child CAN'T, and HE has an IEP so we do have to talk about it."

I honestly don't know. He tends to not talk about things while they're actually going on. We were once quite shocked when one of his school aides was fired (she had been his babysitter and always seemed very fond of him) and it wasn't til months later that he started talking about her having been mean to him.

My husband usually picks him up at the gym, I'll ask him to ask the supervisors if anything had happened.
