[QUOTE="Californiablonde, post: 560614, member: 2196"] I think part of the problem is that she still has no friends. She is in a brand new school in a completely different school district so she left all of her former friends behind her at another high school. She swears up and down to me that she doesn't care about having friends at school. She goes to the boys and girl's club after school and she has several friends there. She says those friends are good enough for her. How can she really be okay with not having a single friend at school? She eats lunch alone. She has nobody to talk to. How can she be fine with that? I remember when I was a junior in high school and my best friend moved out of state. I didn't have any friends for several months. I ate lunch outside by myself. It was the worst feeling for me. I felt so awkward, until my new best friend befriended me and I gained a whole new circle of friends. I felt so much better after that. I can hardly believe that my daughter is okay with having no school friends. This is one of the reasons why I wanted her mainstreamed into a developemental reading class. Right now she's in ED classes with all boys. The boys aren't very friendly either. In the dev. reading class I'm trying to get her into, there's nine girls in the class. I think she would have a better opportunity to make friends in that class, but the teacher doesn't want her in there. I have no idea what else to do for her. She has a therapist she sees regularly, plus the school psychologist. They can't figure her out either. We are all at a loss at how to help her. [/QUOTE]
