[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP here. They don’t have playground volunteers at the school. The teachers themselves take shifts and aren’t always on the playground either. When I volunteer for school events I see nothing because they are doing activities like coloring or eating snacks. I have observed the group dynamic during large outside of school parties. [b]The other girls (with whom my DD often has play dates on her own) will separate into groups and run off and do their own thing (eg Girl Scouts, big birthday parties)[/b] and DD is left alone or to befriend younger girls. [/quote] Does she try to join these groups and is rebuffed? Or does she not try? There is a big difference between the two scenarios in terms of what is driving the outcome and how to respond (negative peer dynamics vs social anxiety or similar). [/quote]
