I remember having to go to daycare when I was young and some kid there kept wiping his boogers on everything. Another kid kept trying to poke himself in the ass with stuff, long after he should have stopped doing that.
If you want him to stop being weird he has to go out and be with other kids who will make him feel weird for that kind of behavior. It's the way I learned..

I don't really have any advice, tho. That really would make me mad, especially because you got yourself some pretty funny boys. Pity that the other kids cannot pick up on that.

And it does make me mad.. I don't know how to help him either.
TVK... it's terrible that I think being introverted is weird isn't it? Because he definitely is. I'm the opposite and so is his brother. Maybe I should just let it go.

Did he have a speech delay growing up? Mine did, and he still struggles talking/communicating to kids in groups, that critical time (2-4yo) when they are figuring it out he couldnt say the words. The speech delay resolved but was part of an overall delay in coordination which keeps him from sports at the same level as other kids, he just cant move his hands/feet as fast with the same accuracy yet. I was the same way with the same issues at that age and didnt really grow out of it until I was 10-12 and by then puberty was wrecking me in a different way.
I decided to just lean into it with the boy. We stay up late and watch weird videos on youtube about the Titanic and volcanos and blackholes and anything else we see, play minecraft and other interactive games, and do kitchen experiments while my wife yells about the mess. We are in a big enough school/community that he has found some really good friends now who are into the same stuff. On the plus side he is light years ahead of other kids with computer tech.

Bitty, it bothers him being out in the cold I think. He says he has no friends and when I mention the few he talks about, he says he can't find them at recess and the other kids say they already have enough players or whatever. He used to play with the girls only, until about grade 2. Then, even that stopped.

Was noticing this month that 100% of the guys at my gym that rep 225+ on the incline bench have gray hair.
Eat in a deficit to lose weight.
Hit your protein and fat minimums to stay healthy and keep your gainz.
Lift heavy and do HIIT to look and feel awesome.
Use the internet to learn why you should do these things and how to do these things.

Personally I was glad she didn’t get influenced by kids in school cause school mentality these days is horrifying. The friends she has in 8th grade tend to be a lot of self thinking girls that don’t go with the trends.
Just hang in there and always be there for him. Someday he’ll be their boss.

Still peaking at 45 kids. Well, except for the hair. Hair is leaving my head and starting to grow on my back and shoulders.

The speech delay resolved but was part of an overall delay in coordination which keeps him from sports at the same level as other kids, he just cant move his hands/feet as fast with the same accuracy yet. I was the same way with the same issues at that age and didnt really grow out of it until I was 10-12 and by then puberty was wrecking me in a different way.
I decided to just lean into it with the boy. We stay up late and watch weird videos on youtube about the Titanic and volcanos and blackholes and anything else we see, play minecraft and other interactive games, and do kitchen experiments while my wife yells about the mess. We are in a big enough school/community that he has found some really good friends now who are into the same stuff. On the plus side he is light years ahead of other kids with computer tech.

If I can't figure something out (I usually don't even try because I'm afraid to fukk stuff up) I ask my son to do it. Because he knows how. So again, same thing. And that's the kind of stuff he wants to watch. Train videos, collapsing buildings, demolition... and the stuff he builds in minecraft is mind boggling. He built a replica of my mother's house. A 737, a functioning railroad track that is like a roller coaster.. thanks ENG. I guess I just worry about him being lonely. But... at the same point, he likes to be alone. I don't recall late speech for him, but EVERYTHING to do with his physical development was later. He didn't even crawl until he was like... 1.5 years old. To this day, like your son, his movements are slower and the coordination isn't there. He would rather make a back to the future track with the train/delorean than play hockey anyway though.
Bitty, it bothers him being out in the cold I think. He says he has no friends and when I mention the few he talks about, he says he can't find them at recess and the other kids say they already have enough players or whatever. He used to play with the girls only, until about grade 2. Then, even that stopped.
