I think it's great he's been able to stick up for himself while getting such an important message out there, in a very creative way! My 7 year old has been recently diagnosed as well and deals with bullying and the feeling of being bullied on a daily basis. It's amazing when our children are able to get out the way they feel, and heal in the process. It takes a lot of courage! Thanks for this important message! ♥

My Jacob (8 yrs old) deals with bullies all the time. Rather than telling the teachers, he comes to me with it. He's so gentle and sensitive that he becomes an easy target. Add that to the fact that he doesn't want to get other kids in trouble AND the fact that they pick on him MORE if he tells ... the cycle doesn't seem to stop.
