[quote=Anonymous] I agree 100% with above poster. When our son moved in 7th grade, the first kid who showed the slightest interest we invited bowling. When our son's birthday rolled around after a few months, we had a laser tag party and lots of kids attended -- that was an icebreaker. It will get better. If your son is involved in any special activities at school -- a club, sports team, etc. -- they usually have gatherings outside of school that spill into the social realm. If he isn't involved in such things, encourage him to pick something he might enjoy and join it. At small private schools, ironically this can be more important than at larger publics b/c often the many kids live far away from one another so more parent effort is involved to get them together sometimes.
