[quote=Anonymous]I was somewhat similar to that as a child, but my parents forced me to do ONE thing every summer. I don't remember what it was when I was 14, it might have been as simple as summer school, but it forced me to get out and socialize. My parents took us on a vacation, then I had my activity for the summer, and then it was time to prepare for school. I remember one summer I volunteered, two summers I went to a high school camp at a local college, I just don't remember which summers they were. It was very hard for me to keep up friendships over the summer because (1) I was reserved, (2) I was kinda awkward, and (3) I was not really friends with the kids in my neighborhood (I went to a magnet school miles away from my house). But I never felt sad or lonely during the summer. She's not too old for camp. If she's good at sports, maybe sign her up for some kind of class at a local rec center. [/quote]
