The more I read on these boards, the more I get afraid for my son. Is it common for Asperger's to get suspended? How do I protect my son when another student bullies and my son defends himself? I just know one of these days he's going to run into one of those situations. He's come real close to lashing back at a kid that tripped him then punched him in the stomach. My son couldn't point him out because there were a lot of kids around when it happened. It's not the first time he's been bullied he was just never acted on them with anger. He's really a nice kid who cares about other kids and will stick up for them if he's sees them being bullied. It's just nobody sticks up for him...not even the teachers. I've been told it's something he has to deal with because of his condition. I am more afraid of him getting hurt real bad from getting beat up than I am of him getting suspended. Anybody else going through this? What can I do? What can my son do? What does the school do?

Hello all! I need help with how to phrase a report card
comment. I have a girl in my three year old class who is
very mature and independent. However, she "knows" how
intelligent she is and she wants to be like the little
teacher. She is constantly helping her classmates with
tasks such as unzipping their backpacks, hanging up their
items in the coatroom, putting a puzzle together, etc. She
is almost smothering them and not allowing them to do
things for themselves. She also tattles constantly. How do
I address this on her report card? Thanks in advance!
