He is a very nice kid and he treats most everyone niceley, his teacher told me at his conference that because hes nice to some Emo kids at lunch hes being picked on by some outher kids . what is the best way to help him deal with that???
BTW Emo I know its a style but im not really sure what it means. I have heard that these kids cut themselves. this concerns me also. I want him to be nice to everyone, and he is, but I dont want him picking up any bad or dangerous habbits.

First of all, he has to know that not everyone is going to love him for what he does!!!
Explain him that it is amazing and great he has such a big heart to sympathize with those kids, sometimes when people help less fortunate people get picked on, what your child needs to understand is that HE´S DOING THE RIGHT THING!!!!that sometimes other people just can´t see what he can, and that should encourage him to be proud of how he is, and how he thinks, that it doesn´t matter if some empty kids pick on him, they don´t deserve his attention, because at the end, he will know that they were wrong and he´ll understand he was right all the way!!!!! He should never change who he is just because some other disagree on what he does.
People with big hearts always get rewarded!!! And he is on the right path!!! The right path is not easy, but it will lead us to what we deserve!!! he´s a great kid!!!
* Always talk to him, try to chat about why those kids cut themselves, and listen to him, closely; and try to support him. Make him see that they are sick, and that they need a bunch of help. That you are proud of him, for his kindness and that you will always be there for him!!!

It sucks that in this day and age there are still parents who don't teach their kids how to respect others.but that should not stop your son from being friends with everyone and anyone he choose.just let your son know that the kids that are picking on him will not make or brake him or the person he is going be.as for your son picking up any bad or dangerous habbits for the emo kids.you really have to stop and think about that for a minute.every ones children's are in danger of picking up bad or dangers habits from their friends emo's or not.i strongly believe that the parent has to be involved in there child's life.my children do not go anywhere unless 1.they ask me (not tell me)if they can go2.i know the child and parents of there friend3.i approve of the friend and parents.but with all that being said my children as well as your children are all open to bad friends and habits.its up to you to teach him the right way to live and not waste "life". GOOD LUCK

He seems like a really nice kid to make friends with everyone like that. I've been on the recieving end of teasing just for trying to be a decent person. I kow what it feels like. Tell him just to ignore them. Another thing to do would be to turn the teasing aroud on them. Something along the lines of, "Well, at least I'm not too stuck-up to make friends with everyone else." And then just walk away.

talk to his teacher about the situation. talk to the principal too. they should be able to help you and your son out. i know how it feels to get picked on. it happened to me a lot in school. just tell him to try to ignore them. i know it is hard but that is the best thing for him to do. tell him not to be afraid of telling the teacher or the principal. he is not tatteling. i don't know that much about emo though i have heard that kids are cutting themselves in school. it is a true shame to for a kid to be subjected to these kinds of things. just talk to him and tell him to continue to be the nice person that he is no matter what. you can ensure he stays this way by being there for him and when he has a problem at school, make sure you are there with him to help him through it that way he always knows that there is someone who cares. most kids who act out believe that there is no one who cares about them. well that and they come from a bad home life. i'm sure he knows not to do these things but you always want to keep tabs on this. just talk to the school and see if you can get the problem solved. if you need further advice or just want to have someone to talk to who cares, you can e-mail me at ctaylor_2003@yahoo.com i will be more than happy to help you out if i can. if you e-mail me make sure you type the question you asked on answers so i know how to respond and who i am talking to. hope this helps and feel free to contact me in the future. i'm pulling for you. good luck.

Hi im 12 to and i feel rilly bad for your son! I get picked on at school to because im short and i dont get wear clothes some of the girls there do and i cant do stuff they can either. Its not right but at school if u different you get picked on. Maybe you should talk to him about it if you can but its hard for me to talk sometimes to my mom about thing like that. Its cool hes nice to everyone maybe when they older they figure out hes cool and good person and if they dont maybe not good people anyways. I hope he does OK!

EMO is when you feel as if your not different from others and they dress that way to be different...But....Most emo will become so different there forget who they are and where they came from...Honesty...I believe you should talk to him...Not to stereotype or anything...But from what I've seen on the streets (law enforcement) emo's turn into hating the world and goes on the wrong path!!!...

I'm nice & used to be bullied in school, too, & it's really bad when my teachers never did anything about the bullying but wanted to suspend me for retaliating. Get him into counseling.

please tell your son to stay true to himself and his values - if he does start cutting - get him help right away because it most definitely can turn into something dangerous and to the most extreme deadly - but being nice to everyone is going to bring him great karma - so encourage that :) good luck
