I'm pretty new posting here, but have been reading these boards for quite some time.
So sorry you are going through this right now. Here's another point of view. Is J being picked on by any of his peers? Are they trying to get him into trouble?
I ask this because last year my son B (who is the same age as J is) was having a hard time in school. He was being picked on by kids and B let it be known that it hurt him. It got to the point where one of the kids who was picking on him goaded him into hitting him at recess. Saying that he wasn't strong enough or didn't have the guts. Well, B had enough and punched this kid in the stomach. He of course denied even doing it (he loves to lie) even though the teachers saw it. He and the other boy got sent to the Principal's office. They were both talked to by the Principal and their teachers and had their recess taken away for the week. Reason being is that the teachers knew that these kids picked on B and B finally had enough. I was steaming mad at B, but DH made me see that B was sticking up for himself, even though he should have gone to the teachers. That was the last time he got picked on last year though. The 2 kids became aquaintances and put up with each other now. Maybe J is going through that right now? Just a thought.
