[quote=Anonymous]Summer is hard for socializing. Kids are away on vacation and family outings, or involved with sports or camps and not on their phones as much. My rising 8th grader’s best friend goes out of the country every summer to see family, and his other best friend has a family camp up north, so he’s a little at loose ends. We’re using the time to do more things as a family. He enjoys solo time going on bike rides, reading, baking, and practicing his instrument. Usually there’s at least one or two neighborhood kids to hang out with. Sometimes he’ll text other friends to meet up at the local library or playground. It’s normal, and good for kids to slow down and shift gears socially every now and then.[/quote]
