Hi Teresa,<br />

It's sad to hear this. &nbsp;It's unfortunate that this happens. I remember it happening to kids when I was in school as well. &nbsp;Has this boy talked to his teachers or talked to the school counselor about how the other kids are treating him?<br />

I'm a parent and have a 14 year son in the same situation. I'm working on this situation now. My advice is to have your 14 yr old call the bully names back. I was bullied as a child but it was short lived because my mother encourage me to take a stand. I've always stood firm since then. Bully's only stop bullying someone when theyre given a compelling reason. Since they're calling your 14 yr old names, he should call gives them names and get those names to stick or maybe make jokes about them... they need to see how it feels. Your 14 yr old is also socially awkward. You need to help develop his confidence among childern his own age. Perhaps enrolling him in a Karate school or boys club. The bottom line is you have develop him so he can hold his own.
