Re:Happy First Day of School - 2006/08/31 21:23
My daughter came home from school in tears today. Regular posters will know that my daughter changed school last year because of a bullying problem at her old school. Things seem to be better until now.
This morning she rode her bike to school with someone who remained her closest friend all last year. Then the friend called my daughter to say that someone else was joining them and that all 3 of the girls would ride together.
To find out the other 2 girls were chatting during the ride both ways leaving my daughter out of the conversation. When I asked her who she played with during recess, she mentioned a couple "other" girls. I asked why she didn't play with her buddy, she said because she won't let me. I asked her to explain what happened. She told me that she asked if she could play with them & this "buddy" just laughed & told her to go away.
My daughter can be somewhat pushy & bossy at times. Probably due to the rejection she's had all these years at her old school. She never had any true friends until changing schools.
But she is very smart & a loveable child.
She cries about it but in the same breath she says that she will just try to make friends with someone else. But I don't believe that is the answer.
I am very upset about this because I want her to have friends & be happy. She is doing well in school but socially is a different story. I suggested that I talk to her buddies Mom to see if I can make things better but she doesn't want me to. I even thought if I talked to her teacher maybe she could give me some ideas. I just don't know what to do anymore.
Any comments?
