[quote=Anonymous]Hi there, My middle school kid had plans to trick or treat with a friend tonight. Yesterday the friend told him he was going with someone else. Today he asked the group of kids he walks to/from school with everyday if he could join them and was told it was a private event at one of the kid's houses on our street before trick or treat and they couldn't invite him. There's nothing that can be done now but I want to help him navigate this in a positive and productive way....and also identify if he's doing something he should change that's contributing to the situation. Unfortunately he's clearly hurt and isnt sharing much detail on what's been said between them. Up until this point social things seemed good. He was going to these kid's houses and having them over here after school and on weekends - even as recent as yesterday. I plan to give him space and revisit it another time but how do you help your child with this kind of thing? It seems especially hard because he's turning inward. I won't force him to talk about it and will proceed based on his cues/willingness to share. Anyway...have you dealt with something like this? What would you recommend? Thank you![/quote]
