That does make it tricky then - I wonder how you would feel about him being in a different pack that didn't have Mom & Dad featuring so heavily? Perhaps a different group dynamic could help too.

I take it the teachers are well aware of the problem - Do they have more social inclusion as one of his goals for the year? It sounds more like he is lacking connection rather than being actively bullied so I imagine the teachers could be of enormous help steering him toward kids who are more tolerant of "quirks".

Best of luck
