[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I was like this as a kid. I think I had some slightly awkward/immature behaviors as a very young child (for instance I cried too easily) and that got me excluded, and pretty soon it was a vicious cycle of coming across even weirder and more desperate as I missed out on the social experiences my peers were getting. Finally found a great group of other nerdy kids at the end of high school, and then had a normal college experience socially and have a great circle of friends as an adult. So please don’t despair and focus on keeping your daughter happy in the meantime- for me things like the spelling bee and science fairs where I excelled helped me keep my confidence during those elementary and middle school years. Also keep exposing her to different groups of kids- you might try things that homeschoolers tend to participate in like 4H; there tend to be a higher proportion of slightly awkward but sweet kids who may be more accepting.[/quote]

Thank you. This is very helpful. [/quote]
