There is this boy that my son became friends with last year on the baseball team. My son was having fun and enjoying the kids and was doing well because people were nice to him but this year the boy has been mean to him. It all started when they became friends. The boy asked if he could come over and he did, then after he wasn't nice anymore. He had asked to exchange games for one week, my son's x-box games were much more expensive, valuable and new and his were not. When the week was over the boy would not give the games to my son. He wanted to keep them and he was serious and I was afraid of that and didn't want my son to do this in the first place because I could tell this is what this boy would do. It turned out my husband was able to talk to the dad on the phone since they are both in baseball and ask for the games back and luckily the dad did give us the games back but after that the boy was mean. He still was my son's friend but he would be mean and lie and say hurtful things to my son and would cheat in the games they played together on x-box live and my son had enough of this boy yet this boy still would want to talk to him and then he would be mean all over again, doing the same kind of stuff. This boy also likes to be mean to my son in front of people and in front of his friends and x-box live and this has hurt my son. A month ago my son had a sunburn and this boy was pinching my son where he had a sunburn and he got a bruise from this pinching. It turned out that this boy hit my son in the arm at the same time as the pinching but my son did not tell me about this. Then at the last practice I just found yesterday after
school my son said that this boy socked him in the stomach under the chest. This boy is very strong, he is a very good hitter in baseball and his dad is the manager of the team and was athletic too so they are strong. This boy is also making fun of us, me and my husband, putting us down and then yesterday this boy called my son up on his cell phone after
school while my son was
walking home with his friend and started to curse at my son and say all kinds of mean things and lots of curse words and again putting me and my husband down. My son finally told this boy and cursed at him too. My son can be very good with words. He is comical and can be very intuitive and knows the right words to say and can get to the core of something as he is very intuitive. My son can say the darndest things as he is a really neat child. He is in the 6th grade and he is very nice. I would say that this boy is jelous of him. My son does not need this boy and this boy just wants to pick on him and hurt him and I am afraid he could do it. He is certainly hurting me very much with what he is doing to my son. Anyone that can hurt my son or my other child hurts me so much. Maybe it has to be because I was picked on as a kid and I don't want to see my kids be picked on ever and also this boy is really getting out of hand. He is very strong and he can hurt my son. I believe this boy is very jelous and I don't think something is right with this boy. This boy has done other viscious things too like he hit a boy in the face and made him bleed, he gets mad, has a temper, wants his way, things he is number one and tells everyone that he is. When my son asked this boy why he hit him this boy said "because I can" and "I can get away with it" which in a way is true, he can. His dad is the manger and I am not sure what will happen. If people on the league will help us with this or not. It is to the point that we need to talk to his dad about this because our son is in danger. We can
avoid and ignore the painful comments and stuff he is saying but not this hitting, what else will this boy do out of his jelousy. His parents are divorced, his dad is young, his dad is popular as he is the lead singer of a band but the band to me and my son is not good as we don't like his heavy loud obnoxious
music and my son did tell this boy that too because he wanted to get back at this boy for saying all the mean things he said about me. He is especially sensitive to that more then to himself because he loves me a lot and I am really sensitive to any pain this boy causes my son. If this boy hurts my son in front of his friends and makes people not like him because people can not like a person who is being picked on, this boy can embarrass him, and he can hurt him and what is worse the other boys feel the same way as this boy who is hurting my son. They don't like my son that much either. My son is very nice but I am not sure if they like him. People are not being nice. My son is the L.L. President because no one would do this job. He has all the work of a President of a League and no power. Everything is completely unfair with this situation and we are ready to
leave. The only problem is is we invested a lot of money into our son's development in baseball. We paid 400.00 for private lessons, we just bought him a new bat and supplies bag and my son likes this but I feel that in any baseball situation these are the kinds of people that you meet. Beer drinking bullies who think they are number one and can do anything to a sweet kid like my son and I mean he is very sweet. I feel like a victim. My son is very strong through this whole thing but he does get mad when this boy puts me down. He can stay strong through anything and I am concerned this boy will hit my son with a bat and my son will stay strong because that is how my son is. My husband is going to talk to the boy's dad tonight. We are leaving this league. My husband is going to resign as the President of the league and they will have to find a new President to do all this work for nothing and I mean nothing. My son will have lost a great game to play because of the way the people were and I am not going to send my son to the Junior HIgh that his friends are going to go to from his
school all because of this boy. I don't want this boy to hurt my son and he will go to this Junior HIgh. I am going to drive my son to another Junior HIgh and find another Junior High for my son to go to because of this boy. I will not have my son be near this boy and some of the other kids from L.L. who will be going to this Junior High next year. It is unfortunate as I like this Junior High and his friend will go but if his safety is in jeopardy I am not going to this Junior HIgh next year. I feel really upset with what I am going through. If anyone can offer me advice or experience I would really appreciate it. It weighs heavily on me because I love my son and do not want anything to happen to him. He is one of the best things that ever happened to me and I love him so much, words will never express the love I have for my son.
