Subject: Unfortunately, this is a common part of growing up - middle schoolers have a tendency to "group" and exclude (learning about control and how much power they actually have.) Something similar happened to my DD. I encouraged her to continue to be nice to everyone, expand her friendships and soon, she found her niche with a much nicer crowd. Also, have her keep in contact with her dancing friends- they have a special bond, and understand each other's obsession with dance. Good luck.

  • I can relate. Our DD knows that her group is non-supportive of one another, no matter what. She barely mentions ID to them. None of them acknowledge an achievement, cute outfit, hairstyle, etc. Our DD is shy, too, but hubby and I await the day she finds a supportive group. I'm sure it will happen and they'll be better for this experience. Just have to get through this. She might go to their games to cheer them on, then maybe one or two girls might ask to go to a feis. Try it. -- I wish my DD had more supportive freinds, too., 07:38:08 08/26/02 Mon
