My 8th grader has ADHD, awkward socially. Peers mock them daily. School response: 'They're being kids,' 'They need to learn to handle it.' But my teen is becoming suicidal about it.

School enabling the bullying.

How do you escalate when school won't protect your child from bullying?

Teens can smell an agenda from three rooms away. Casual side-by-side conversations — car rides especially — worked far better for us than sit-downs.
