[quote=Anonymous]My daughter was a late bloomer. At first she scored in the 40%s on standardized tests, and she was timid in social situations. She was bullied and cried a lot about social problems. She asked to be involved in a huge variety of activities so she went through several- everything from ballet to soccer to wrestling to art to scouts. Somewhere along the way a talent for swimming emerged and around that time (third grade) her test scores shot way up into the 80s and 90s. Now she’s a popular, confident girl with high scores and athletic accomplishments. That may or may not happen for your daughter but what advice I can give you is to let her lead the way in terms of activities and be open to the idea that she’s not fully formed right now and the little girl you know could change rapidly.
