Slovak Parents Seek Guidance on Child's School Anxiety and Social Struggles

A Slovak parent has written to advice columnist about their 10-year-old son's increasing struggles with school anxiety and peer relationships. The child, described as sensitive and introverted with interests in reading and drawing, has developed growing problems not only with learning but particularly with relationships with classmates and motivation over the past year. The parent reports that their son fears mockery from peers and appears increasingly anxious, prompting concerns about whether professional psychological help should be sought even though no extreme incidents have occurred yet. The case reflects broader concerns about children's mental health and social adjustment in Slovak schools.
