[QUOTE="susiestar, post: 191185, member: 1233"] I wish I had ideas. Are kids allowed to "share" food - ie give another kid candy? At our school they are not allowed to do this because so many kids have diet restrictions and so many will not eat if they are allowed to give it away. (It lets the cafeteria ladies who stand by the trash cans send kids back to sit down if they have the whole tray of food still there when they go to throw everything away- and it is AMAZING how many kids do this!) I would ask the teachers to help, if that is possible. As for what to tell her, I really don't know. thank you struggled some last year, mostly because he is sooo much smarter than most of the other kids. This year he is in the same class with the other kids who are way ahead (last year they were all spread between the teachers so each teacher would have at least one really smart kid, made zero sense to me.) Usually the teacher can help assign them to groups where the kids can and must work together, so it helps kids who don't have friends make some. You just have to help her appreciate her own strengths where and when possible. I would also ask teh guidance counsellor to help her - they are usually pretty good at this. I am sorry this week has been so lonesome and rough for her. I remember how horrible it feels, I spent a number of years that way. [/QUOTE]
