Jenelle Evans Says Son Keiser Is ‘Having a Tough Time’ Due to Bullying at School

Teen Mom star Jenelle Evans is opening up about how she tends to deal with her children’s mental health. Revealing that her youngest son, Kaiser Griffin, has been experiencing bullying, she talked about her approach to the sensitive subject. In a video posted to the reality television star’s TikTok video on September 16, she shared clips from an adventure that she, Kaiser, and her oldest, Jace Evans, went on to the arcade in attempts to pamper themselves with a much needed self-care day.

She addresses bullying in her post.

“Bullying is NOT okay,” Jenelle wrote in the caption of the post, adding the hashtag #MentalHealthMatters. The video showed her, Kaiser, and Jace enjoying time at the arcade and playing multiple games, including VR racing. It ended with the mother and her 10-year-old son lying in bed watching a movie.

Jenelle thinks they need more 'one-on-one' time with her.

“I took the boys to an arcade game,” she begins the video. “I think they need more one-on-one time with me because Kaiser is actually having a tough time at school from bullying. It’s really sad to see my child going through this and there’s only so much I can do. Adults can tell children how to act, but ultimately it’s up to the children. So after days of Kaiser being bullied, I decided to just have a day with him because he deserves it.”

She urges parents to talk to their kids.

“I can’t stress enough to talk to your children about bullying this year because it’s hit hard for our household,” she continued. “It really brings back memories to my days in school when everyone used to make fun of each other over name brands, and looking back it was the most stupidest thing to be bullying each other about.”

She also encourages mental health checks.

“So yeah, here’s a reminder for a mental health check for your kids,” she said in the post, adding, “Just check up on them.” Fans rallied around in support of Kaiser in the comments.

Here's how fans responded.

“I hate bullying. Parents need to do better raising their kids. I’m sorry this is happening ,” one person said, to which Jenelle replied, Yes they do! .”

Another person wrote, “I’m sure you already have but definitely talk to the school and see if there’s anything they can do, switch classes or them talk to the bullies. I went through it too at that age and it’s so hard!”
