I don't really know what a good way to handle it is, getting aggressive with people who stare shows your son that its not okay for anyone to think less of him (if that's on their mind) but it seems too defensive - like he has something he needs to defend that others don't. Probably better to get aggressive.

Hes the child I look after, but yes is almost like a son to me as I have looked after him for 10 of his 12 years.

Like I said I have no problem at all with children doing it, and if they come and ask questions we usually chat to them and explain it at a level they can understand based on their age, BUT adults really should know better, ok have a peek at him, but to nearly trip over or walk into something because you have nearly snapped your neck looking at him is just downright rude sorry.
