[quote=Anonymous]It is common for the age, IME. Kids are beyond the age where parents are arranging the plans, but sometimes not yet quite to the age where they independently make plans unless the friends are in the neighborhood or it is a BFF type of situation. Add in the fact that some don’t have cell phones just yet, and many being in and out of town on vacation or at camp, and it gets tricky. During the day, most don’t do traditional day camps anymore & socialize that way. It is a very transitional age. I would not read too much into it. Sounds pretty normal. Do make sure DD realizes she can invite friends over (or include them in a family outing) , you are willing to drive/pickup if needed, and that sort of thing. But don’t push it to the degree she thinks you are worried about it (which will rub off on her). [/quote]
