[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]People are insane. Nothing in your post gave enough information for people to diagnose her with ASD or say she has “real problems.”  Middle school is brutal. Love and support her.  Most girls have these issues.

Thank you! I can't believe how quickly PPs jump to some medical diagnosis. It IS insane. Kids are awkward sometimes--that does not mean there is anything wrong with them. This board sure does make a strong case for homeschooling... :roll: [/quote]

As the PP with the DD with HFA, I have to take exception to the characterization that there is something “wrong” with DD. [/quote]

Seriously?  [/quote]

Yes, seriously. My DD is the sweetest kid, never a bad word about anyone, very bright and hard-working, not a great athlete and socially awkward. Why would that mean there is something wrong with her?  In my view, there is more wrong with the kids who are mean to other kids for no reason. What do you think?[/quote]

No kidding. Why does society think that there is something wrong with the nice kids??? I learned to embrace my kid's kindness and not to think that she is socially awkward just because some kids at school don't find her cool. And these are the kids that spend their evenings and weekends texting selfies to each other and talking poorly about other kids. My kid lost her best friend to this group and her friend ended up coming back to her because eventually, she got bored with the other girls. Nothing wrong with your awesome sounding daughter, OP. Tell her middle school sucks, even for the popular ones.[/quote]
