Today my elder one Albrain (10 years old) came over and asked me on how to handle if friends and cousins boast seeing cartoons/TV shows and mock if he doesn't know any.
Basically he doesn't watch TV programs, he would watch selective shows if he have time and it is mostly related to space, science️ and puzzles. That's the reason he doesn't fit into common groups. He was so upset of being mocked for not watching a TV serial. 🤯
I convinced him saying that if they ask you whether you watched this or that (which anyone can watch)? Just ask them back whether they solved puzzle in chess or challenge them with a mathematical sum(which only few interested kids can do). I added if you are again bullied by the same person or trying to put you down, then the person is not fit to be with you...Just let go and move on. He is somewhat convinced and continued his work.
I don't know whether I handled in right way.🤷 Now, I am curious to know how you convince your kid when they are down?
