[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP here, thank you for your replies, they do make me feel better. My assumption is that when a half day is on a friday, most kids aren't coming home and doing homework but rather making into sort of a long weekend. She knows some friends were going to the mall and she wanted to tag along but it didn't work out (and I have a feeling it didn't work out because she wasn't exactly invited, which also contributes to my sadness for her). To the PP who said I'm making it worse for her by being morose, I agree with you. I'm doing my best and keeping a happy face because the last thing I want is for her to feel like home isn't a safe place for her to be herself. She does have soccer practice at 5:00, which is good. But her one friend on the soccer team is part of that group that went to the mall without her, and is skipping practice so again.... sigh. [b]To the PP who asked if she wouldn't be as sad on a regular school day, the answer is no, b/c she has a bunch of sports and other activities she does, so she usually has a plan after school. it's just today's combination of beautiful Friday + half day + knowing her friends are out without her that is creating the perfect storm. [/b] Thanks again for the replies, I really do appreciate them. One day at a time.... [/quote] That was me. :( Maybe you can do something cool and special together. [/quote]
