What grade is your son in? I feel like elementary kids usually are nicer but middle school can be awful for any child, including those with no social issues. You may want to consider eventually homeschooling when he gets to middle school. Middle school is notorious for bullying, as everyone tries to be part of a clique, an in or out crowd. Also, is your child taking everything in stride or is he becoming more depressed? If the environment is toxic, you may consider taking him to social groups with other like minded peers.
