[quote=Anonymous]I’ve seen a lot of accounts from anguished parents on both sides of the tween friend breakups. I think you’ll best serve your child’s interest to help her realize that she is better off meeting new friends that she has more in common with, and do do this without trying to demonize the old friends. If the other parents are blunt with you about why they don’t want to include your daughter that could be even more hurtful to you and your daughter. I know parents and kids say they want to know but from what I’ve seen, seeking out and getting this info has never ended well. Better to realize that not all kids are compatible and focus on positive steps to find more compatible friends. We have been through this too when my DD went through cycles of being shut out from a trio and it is hurtful but new friendships solved the problem.[/quote]
