Well it would be good if you can explain more how he was shaking exactlly? But it could be that he was scared and nervouse....maybe being in class makes him nervouse (of not knowing something if asked), maybe he doesn't like to socialize so much with kids and he is afraid to be judged by them....it could be many stuff. Please refill your question so we can give you more narrow answers :) Hope everything goes fine!

Well, there could be several reasons actually.
First, if he was shaking violently, the boy could be having an upcoming seizure. Seizures are not always caused by diabetic shock either. Sometimes, people have seizsures from other illnesses or diseases. For instance, Malayria, a foreign disease really only seen in poverty-ridden countries like Sudan, Kenya, Congo, and many other African nations causes an indefinite shake to the human hands. It affects people differently. Some shake in their hands, while others shake in their legs and even their head.
Second, the child could have a condition called the DTs. But, this condition really only affects people who are abusers of alcohol. Not that teens don't drink or smoke away their frustrations on occasion, however, it is rare for a young boy to have this. Delirium tremens (colloquially, the DTs, "the horrors", "the shakes" or "rum fits") is an acute episode of delirium that is usually caused by withdrawal or abstinence from alcohol following habitual excessive drinking. Delirium tremens can also appear after a rapid reduction in the amount of alcohol being consumed by heavy drinkers, or as a complication of withdrawal from benzodiazepine or barbiturates. It only occurs in individuals with a history of constant, long-term alcohol consumption. Delirium tremens typically manifests about 18 to 24 hours after discontinuation of alcohol consumption, but can appear on the second or third day of abstinence.
Five percent of acute ethanol withdrawal cases progress to delirium tremens. Unlike the withdrawal syndrome associated with opiate or stimulant addiction, delirium tremens (and alcohol withdrawal in general) can be fatal. Mortality can be up to 35% if untreated, though if treated early, death rates may be as low as 5%.
Third, the boy could also be suffering from just an upset of nerves, which isn't uncommon with people who are constantly bullied. There are various ways of treating people who suffer from these varying conditions.
These may not even be the problem. He could even suffering from an unknown nervous disorder that he nor his parent/s could know about yet.
I glad to see however, that you noticed and show concern about it. I do hope it is nothing serious. I know it only sounds like words and I don't know you or him, but, deep down in my heart and do hope it is nothing serious.
Good luck to you and the boy.

I'm not sure why, but I tend to shake or bounce my right leg all the time. Sometimes I don't even realize that I'm doing it. Some people would say that it is a nervous tick, but I wouldn't say that I'm nervous when I do it. I guess the gentle shaking is quite soothing though. I hope that helps.

It's an unconscious release; most men don't realise they "shake" parts of their body, and it is often not a conscious act.
Basically it is a form of masturbation. But don't panic! It's not REAL masturbation, only an unconscious relief method for NOT being able to masturbate!
But of course men will deny this because, as I said, it's a completelly unconscious thing; they don't realise they do it and don't know what it means!
