How would you advice you kids regarding their social problems in school?

You did the right thing by comforting your son who is coming from school feeling low. Usually that's the common experience of many children on the first day of school. One book author on motherhood wrote that the school is the cruelest place for our children. That's where they are exposed to different influence, where they are bullied, pick up bad words, etc, etc. We parents need to be home when they arrive from school. Our hugs and smile will help them cope with feeling low and be ready to face another new challenge for them the next day. When our children are out there, we cannot control what they see and hear. We will not be there to protect them. But if they are happy and satisfied and felt loved at home, they will not be easily moved by any teasing. they will always feel secure even if others refuse to play with them. It is also important that they know how to choose their friends. We can tell them it's okay if others don't like to play with them. They should keep looking for friends and not give up. i hope this contributes a little to your question. Blessings!

what you did was right, sometimes we need to tell our kids on what to do. actually it depends on their age, when they are still young, they often would come to you and tell you immediately their problems, and you can directly give advice, but sometimes, when the kids reach the teen age, they tend to keep their problems and listen to their peers, so its better to make sure that your kids' friends are people you can trust.

Hi there czanwell! In my case, I just urge them to keep going. Whenever their playmates do not like to play with them, probably, something just happened. "It is just a temporary situation", I say. And yes, giving assurance to my kids by giving them hugs and kisses is a very important thing. It is like telling them that no matter, we are always here for them. Cheers!^^

Hi, First day school is always a new day for our kid. It goes same to my son..I feel nervous of whether he will get along with his new friends and will he looks for me or not. I am glad that he is adapting well at school and have make some friends. Of course, with other kids mixed around, they will start to get naughtier and I just need to keep telling him to "behave" well at school. Or else the teacher will beat him and he is not a good boy.

My nephews are always being bullied at school and I dont like it. My nephews are nice and they dont want to fight with those who bully them but sometimes I think that enough is enough. I think I am a bad aunt because I tell them to fight back if someone tries to do something to do them. I told them its not okay if they are going to start it but its okay if they are just going to defend themselves if someone hits them or something. I am bad, am I not?
