Jealous or not?

S was upset tonight because he says that his classmates make fun of him because he likes math. S is in 4th grade and the teacher posts all the kids scores on a bulletin board with the high score at the top. Well, you guessed it. S is at the top! I'm so proud of him but he doesn't like being teased. S is very sensitive so I don't know what to think of it. My guess is that they other kids are probably just jealous.

Maybe its not cool to be smart in Elementary School. I don't know.

    It is soooooooo cool to be smart in school! Just keep reminding S that! Ryker is top in everything and he thinks it's cool and it makes him try even harder and he thrives on discovering and learning new things.
    The other kids are just jealous!
    Woo-hoo! Go S!
