[quote=Anonymous]Urban areas are very different than suburban. As a kid, I did just hang out with girls in the neighborhood. We went to the same schools, often did the same activities, etc. In the summer we went to the neighborhood pool, watched bad tv, and would spend all day chatting. This is also the case for tweens and teens in my current suburban neighborhood. In more urban areas, parents have to be much more involved in scheduling activities and driving their kids to meet up with friends. I suggest signing them up for activities with a strong community vibe (sports league, dance center etc) and making yourself available to drive them to coffee dates with friends etc. [/quote]
