my little brother is crying and screaming after school saying it's too much and he's only in second grade....i feel horrible for him and i wanna console him but i'm worried he doesn't want it from me and will just scream at me. and my parents don't understand and tell him to scream in school instead :/

my parents are trying to reason with him even though it's obviously not going to work. he's overwhelmed and scared and upset and i wish i had anything i could say to let him know he's not alone in feeling like this

he's a little brat and annoying at times, but it's obvious he struggles to express his emotions in school, whereas at home he's comfortable to just have meltdowns. he's not trying to be a brat, he obviously is just upset

poor thing
