[quote=Anonymous]As for lunch: - as pp said, talk to the counselor, because they will often arrange “lunch groups” in their office and then in cafeteria because this happens to kids - girls and boys - all the time (gotta love those high schoolers who started the “eat with us” app!) - will she start middle school in grade 6, and if so, is it a bigger group of kids than her elem school? if so, she has a great chance to break out to f her mold and meet new kids who don’t have poreconceived ideas about it. she sounds great and happy with herself and she would probably fast make friends in a new setting (which as a reminder to you, her parent, the ability to make new friends is a very positive strength in the long run of school and life) - along thise lines, ai would encourage her to get involved in a new activity where she can meet kids who don’t have these preconceived ideas about her and her sweet and kind personnality can come through. I often suggest this, but the tech crew on the school play has been a place like that for my kids who can be a little socially awkward, too. At two different schools, it has been such a welcoming group of kids - a merry band of misfits of sorts but in the best possible way :-). Girl scouts is another idea. Or the school band or chorus if she is musical. Or an outside activity that soeaks to her interests, where can she have a chance to click with others because they have that interest in common.
