[quote=Anonymous]My social DD is becoming withdrawn and sad. She says that when she goes to school she is excluded from other girls’ groups, even though these same girls frequently have one on one play dates/sleepovers with my DD. But DD says that when in groups she is excluded and asked to leave. There is one popular girl in the class group who dislikes my DD so I’m not sure if that plays into it.

I’ve tried talking to the teacher and counselor at school. They say there isn’t a problem and that I should just keep doing play dates. But there is a problem! I don’t even know how to approach this because my daughter says that talking with the school counselor or these other girls’ moms will just make things worse (and I think she’s probably right).

Any advice?  This is a public elementary school in VA. I could swing parochial school costs but not full private. She is asking to be home schooled but I can’t do that. I would really appreciate any advice for people who have navigated this. [/quote]
