Hi it’s nice to meet you. I have concerns about my 15 year old son. Since high school started for him ( he is in 10th grade) he has no friends. ( says it’s his choice.). He only wants to be with us at home, dinner, vacations ect.... He also like hanging out with us and family friends who have kids his age. His grades dropped a little bit since 9 th grade. He does a good job entertaining himself at home. He loves sports and ONLY SPORTS. He plays with his basketball hoop in the basement. He only plays video games if they are sports. (He doesn’t like the shooting games ). He is on his high schools Baseball team. Which he complains about his teammates being “annoying” he said they make fun of each other and sometimes they even “slap box” in the locker room. He enjoys playing on a summer travel team. But he never became friendly with any of the boys. It’s strickly baseball. He had a good friend from elementary school who 2 summers ago started smoking marijuana. He told my son “if your not going to smoke with us then you shouldn’t hang out with us.” This makes me concerned that my son might have lost a lot of confidence in himself after such an experience from a friend. I do believe he is afraid of rejection. Every time I tell him to call someone up to go out, he says “why don’t they call me?” I feel so broken hearted . Because he is so sweet and loving. He is s good son. This is the only problem he gives us. He hardly ever shows us disrespect or answers us back. I have s 13 year old daughter who has many different friends and a full social life. I would love it if someone would tel me if I should take him to a doctor to talk to someone. Thank you all
