yes, just be patient,understanding, talk to him in a nice manner. Boys get jipped when it comes to understanding of their puberty. Spend extra special time with him when you can.

It should be just a phase and being in a new school can add a lot of stress to a kid. I know because my nephew went through the same thing. It is a normal thing that all teens go through. The bad grades I'm not sure about though. I think you should talk to him about his grades and just ask if maybe the work is to hard or if there is to much. If this is the case maybe you can help him with some of his work and make sure he can do it. Hope I helped you and good luck

Have a 13 year old. It's mostly the age. But the report card could be from moving to a new school, he seems depressed (but what kid that age isn't) His hormones are RAGING...so you get the benefits yay for us. They know you will be there in the end so they annoy the crap out of ya. I got mine into a program that works with this thing 4H (it helps) . Mine knows everything to. Just breathe it will pass but may get worse before it gets better.. hate to say. Could you find something he would like to do?...drums, karate or sports? He is trying to "find himself".

Teenagers are going through all sorts of changes, both mentally and physically. Even though he's 12, he has already begun those changes. Hormones play a huge role in mood changes and children at his age are the most hormonal of all humans. Plus they do not have the life experience to understand and deal with all of these new changes.
At his age, reputation and appearance, are the "all important" things that they worry about. Just starting a new school has everything to do with not only his moods but his performance. It may be his way of trying to fit in with a group of kids that he wants to hang out with. It may also be that his mind is not on his school work but on his hormones instead. Not wanting to stick out in the new crowd may also be the reason for his non-performance.
The changes that he is experiencing are normal. However, the way that he deals with them needs to be addressed by you. Talk to him and find out what is going on at school. Encourage him to open up about his uncertainties in life and with his body.
Support him when he reveals his vulnerabilities to you and assure him that this crazy time in his life will pass.
From everything that I've read and seen with my own son, this is the hardest time in his life when dealing with his own personal problems and also with his peers.
Just keep your lines of communication open with him and let him know that you will always be there for him if he wants to confide in you.
And the same advise goes out to you: This time will pass, enjoy now while it's still this simple.

well im 14, and your grades arent suposed to go down during puberty. He must be hanging out with a bad crowd. Are his friends bad? Is He? If so you should ground him or something more often. Parents dont know that much!

This is normal behavior, and it will probabley get worse before it gets better. As long as you keep the handguns away from him, you should be alright

in basic terms bypass as much as her and ask her. i'm hoping you will a minimum of. I guess once you ask her out, one million. she would be in a position to assert confident (asking a woman out [for me a minimum of] continuously makes me like the guy asking me 250% greater for his braveness and attempt), 2. After asserting confident, it is going to likely be a sizeable improve for your self-nicely worth (I advised this boy I enjoyed him after considering the situation for [no exaggeration] 2 months, I felt like i could in basic terms take over the international with my surprising ability), 3. mutually as going out on dates, she's guaranteed to make you experience like each thing you pick. a competent boyfriend is in basic terms himself. would not do what he thinks she could think of is warm or despite. he's likewise style, continuously. be certain which you do get her opinion in lots (like taking her out on a date, ask her the place she'd choose to bypass (video clips is an undemanding determination. it is going to in all probability be a alleviation to her on the grounds that she in all probability wil be frightened too), it's going to make her experience important. don't be afraid to communicate your ideas out nonetheless (as long as this is not something like, "B*TCH, i needed ICE CREAM"). I even have this pal who pissed me off lots because of the fact he in basic terms refused to communicate what he substitute into feeling along with his lady pal. very very nearly ruined their relationship. whether this is in basic terms little issues like, "you seem quite" or "wanna bypass *insert interest right here* today." in case you have the choose to make a flow, do it. If she would not like it, she would be in a position to make it easier to recognize, this is in basic terms yet another act of healthful verbal substitute. i could say greater stuff, yet i've got already pronounced 1000000000 issues, plus i don't understand a thank you to jot down out my different ideas, XD. the two way, quantity one precedence for you is to ask her. I choose you ultimate of success!
