[quote=Anonymous]Which likely is a good thing, but I know can be painful in Middle School.  They talk about the "popular" kids a lot and we talk about how being well liked is what is important and often middle school "popular" is not exactly well liked all the time.   They both have a few good friends, not many, but nice kids from good families, etc.   They are both friendly and pretty outgoing, middle of the road students, middle of the road athletes, etc.   They are also somewhat home bodies.   Both usually are ok with this situation, but at times feel left out and that the other crowd is not particularly nice to them.   How have you handled similar?    I was the middle of the road kid all through school, as I think my husband was too.   We were floaters among many different types of people and while I do remember not feeling like I was intimately a part of "the crowd" I usually was ok with my independent status.  I also could not ever swallow gossip or anyone being mean, so that kept me a bit adrift at times.   [/quote]
