Call his grandmother.
Reaching out to a supportive person is a healthy step: talking about what’s upsetting him can reduce loneliness, help him process feelings, and sometimes lead to practical help or advice. Ignoring feelings or dwelling on how unfair life is tends to make sadness worse.
Other helpful actions: talk with a trusted adult or school counselor, practice self‑care (sleep, exercise, routine), try problem‑solving (family budget, community resources), and see a mental‑health professional if sadness persists or gets worse.
