    so proud of my son

    Some of you know what we went through with Ethan last week..

    We did some play acting on Sunday to prepare him for the week of teasing ahead.. WELL I am pleased (and proud) to say they have stopped teasing him about "shayleigh"

    he is so darn happy. He was all smiles all week.. even said I don't care what they say to me anymore Today he said the teasing had stopped..

    It isn't completely done with as there are a couple small issues still but Ethan feels he can handle this..

    I am just so proud of him for standing up for himself and for stopping these bullies..

    I just hope this continues after the school holidays but we will continue with play acting and building his self confidence over the holidays anyways

    so I just wanted to share with you all

    I am just so happy for him..

    I do know this won't be the end of things but now I know he is strong and he knows it now too


    when I read through the bullying thing on a few pages he doesn't fit into your typical bullied child (prob cus he is so smart ) seriously though he is very clever and I think that helps him.. dh and I both the other day (Tuesday I think) did more play acting with him as Mon wasn't a great day but we did tell him the teasing would probably get worse for a little while and then stop. We didn't expect it to happen this quickly though..

    He has a presentation to give at school today so we are off to that.. I might eye ball some of the teasers

    anyways thanks to you all for your support last week. Will keep you updated on Ethan if things change..
