Well, Kieran came home from school yesterday in foul mood. He's claiming that everyone hates him. He even said that he was told that they(the kids at school) wish he had died. He said, "me too." When I asked him why he wishes he had died he said so he could see his daddy. I just felt so bad but relieved that his reason was that and not that everyone hates him.
I need to make him an appointment with Kluthe so he can go in and get things off his chest. He's been doing so well that I haven't made the appointment. He hasn't seemed like he needs to go but more and more he comes home saying all the kids at school don't like him. I ask him why and he always comes up with a different reason. This time it was because of his teeth. He needs braces but we can't even think about getting them for him until all of his adult teeth come in. The funny part is that he wants braces pretty bad too, he's always changing his mind as to what color he wants the rubber bands to be.
I feel bad for him when he comes home from school after having a bad day but in the same token he's so crabby that you can hardly stand how he treats everyone else. I just try to tell him sorry and sympathize with him. What else can you do? I can't make it all better but I can be there for him to express his feelings.
Last night he ended up having a good day. He and some friends had a water fight outside and then we went to Grandma Diane's birthday party at McGrath's Fish House. It was a good time and helped him see that he's loved and accepted by some people. He's a good kid and he needs to learn to not let the kids at school get to him because let's face it, kids are cruel.
