[quote=Anonymous]I'm so sorry, that makes my heart hurt. I was that kid. No issues or disabilities or anything; just a smart precocious dorky kid who didn't fit the mold. I did make friends eventually. I would encourage you to look for activities for her -- think of things that may be outside the box, like archery or rock climbing or martial arts. And I second asking the teacher about it. Lastly, if you notice habits that might make her less likely to keep friends, gently correct them. I was a sweet kid but I did talk over people and have some know-it-all behaviors and it probably put them off. [/quote]
