Hi,
I love your kid. He's not upset, his mother is upset for him. To me, the fact that he keeps asking him(other kid) in a kids off-hand way
if he wants to warm-up with him, and the kid says hes going to wait for joey, tells me he is pretty well adjusted for his age. Mom, thats what kids do. You keep using the work "civil: as if that should even apply. You're just driving him to school. Your son will make new friends. He's a nice kid.
I would not allow anyone to poke my child in the eyes. Report that immediately. Thats a no-go.
When your son is chased off the court, let him say, there are no rules to say I must give up the court to you. However grade level may come in to school power struggles, which occur naturally.. I don't see it as bullying. Believe me if 8th graders want the court over the 5th grader, they'll get it. Thats the pecking order.
No eyes poking. Thats my line in the sand. Yennie, just drive the kids to school. If anything else happen you can change your plans,
