[QUOTE="Lil, post: 689620, member: 17309"] But the crazy thing is, while I'm sure my son has had problems, he was never bullied. He may not have fit in with the jocks or the preppy kids, but he always had friends [I]until[/I] he started hanging out with the slacker/stoners in high school. His teachers liked him. Every single one of them said he could have done work far beyond what he was doing, but he would just coast by. If he'd tried, he'd have been a straight A student. He could NOT have had more support at home than he got! He was always allowed to express himself, never pushed into anything he didn't want to do - we didn't force sports on him, for instance - but he was always told he could do anything he put his mind to. I wish I knew where his lack of self-esteem came from. [/QUOTE]
