[QUOTE="Big Bad Kitty, post: 53192, member: 3647"] One thing to know about girls this age is that EVERYTHING is a major deal. It is possible to have and lose a "BFF" 10 times in a day. My older daughter did much better with one or two close friends than with a big group of acquaintances. I, too, got sick of her coming to me every 10 seconds with "Sally is not my friend. Susie looked at me crosseyed. Janey likes Katey better than me." I finally started asking her what she thought she could do to feel better. You are right, they need to figure these things out for themselves, and 11 is not too early. This is THE. TOUGHEST. AGE. 11 years old was when Copper decided she knew everything. And that I knew absolutely nothing. It does get easier in HS. [/QUOTE]
