[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Make sure your DD has multiple friends in multiple groups. Diversify. I think it’s ok that this friendship drifted since it was accompanied by a school change. But don’t put all your eggs in one basket, in case there is more to it and this girl is drama. [/quote] Yep, this is always my main advice to my kids. And normalize that friendships shift. Because it's normal and they do. Is she enjoying the girl's company? Is the girl nice to her? Then hang out with her for now but not to the exclusion of other friends.[/quote] No complaints about Sally, other than her current clinginess, which, my most generous assumption is because she is fighting with her school friend group. DD should support Sally, but, you are right, expect this friendship to shift with time. [/quote]
