[quote=Anonymous]My 13 year old son is very social at school and seems pretty happy and comfortable around his peers. However, he really does not have many friends that he hangs out with outside of school. When I drive carpools of his peers to practices, they are all texting, instagramming etc making plans to get together but somehow he is not doing so. When he does socialize, he really enjoys himself but he hates instigating get togethers - he always worries about what to suggest doing and whether it will be fun. It just seems as though his peers are being very social and he is not. I obviously don't want him to be on his phone all the time but is it normal at his age to almost never do so? I realize this may seem like an odd issue to worry about but I just want him to have good friends and not be lonely - I keep reading about how important peer groups are at this age.[/quote]
