[quote=Anonymous]I have three kids, my oldest is 14, a daughter. i am starting to see she is kind of a loner. She is well adjusted, is a happy kid, very artsy but just not super social. It does hurt me as I was very social growing up. The phone rarely rings and most weekends she is home doing things with us when I know many her age are off to malls, parties and such. The most important thing is that she is truly a happy kid and is as happy shopping with me or taking on a art project. Once in a while she will do something with a friend but its maybe one to two times a month. I am starting to accept it even though I badgered for a long time. I cannot lie it still bothers me.

Just wondering from a mother's perspective, what is it to be the mother of a very popular teen? Do you ever wish that was not the way or do you bask in the glory? Is it not all that its cracked up to be? Lonely at the top? Because its anonymous was hoping for answers to something I have always wanted to know, hopefully everyone can speak honestly.  Is the phone constantly ringing and shes or he is always being asked to do this or that, and its you putting a limit to how much they do? Sometimes I wish I had that problem, other times I am thankful I just have a happy well adjusted  kid even if she chooses to not have many friends. Thanks for indulging me[/quote]
