[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Both my 7th grader and 9th grader have lunch periods with no friends in it. My 9th grade DS says he enjoys time to himself. He’s on his phone, which he has said most kids are doing the same. My 7th grade DD isn’t thrilled but has friends. Just not at the same period. I explain that it’s a good skill to learn to be comfortable by yourself. As long as they aren’t sad about it, mine are learning how to be fine with just being alone (which they know is different than lonely). [/quote] Same for my 8th grader. It’s only every other day but he talks about the lunch block where he doesn’t know anyone. He brings his phone and air pods to school, mainly for this reason. [/quote]
