[quote=Anonymous]Yes, Mom, you need to accept and support the girl you have not the one you wish was popular with this group of girls.  IT IS OKAY and healthy for them to change friend groups.  Something similar has happened to my 5th grade son over the last couple of years (except he was also left out of birthday parties for the old group). He is fine. He was always a periphery member of this group who got along with some of them and not others. He's stopped seeking out the few boys in this group that he used to hang with and focused on other friends and is happy.  You need to let this go and support that process.

Honestly, I suspect if you can really let go of your anger, you'll be able to see that that your DD probably doesn't 100% fit in with this group.  Even if she does, just re-frame it your head as these are her "dance friends" but nothing more.  The "where've you been" comment strikes me as possibly a BS cover from a mom who knows full well that your DD is not longer part of the "club."  Smile and move on.[/quote]
