How can I protect my son from bullying?

“I am concerned that my son who has ADHD is being bullied and he is not opening up to us about it. He refuses help and thinks he can handle the ‘annoying kids.’ He is not socially savvy, and he gets in trouble by saying inappropriate comments when he tries to defend himself, and he is not reporting to staff. He is on IEP, but they are not helpful, all they do is pull him out for sessions that he says is not beneficial to him because he is grouped with kids who have lots of speech and other problems. I feel that the IEP pull out sessions are backfiring instead of helping him. Moreover, he is being called sped. How can I protect my son?”
