[quote=Anonymous]I think this is the hardest age. What they need to be doing is transitioning to hanging out with their friends (in person, not on line), but they have no interest in having parents involved in setting up "play dates" :-) and they can't quite get it together to get friends together on their own. Plus, our 13 year old has a phone, but no snap chat and a lot of boys at that age do not reply to texts - only snaps. I will say that our 15 (almost 16) year old is past this and now hangs out with friends every weekend. 13 year old is mainly on screens, doing organized sports, some hobbies (sketching and baking), and doing family activities that I force. But I'm pretty confident this will change once he gets to high school and he'll have his group he hangs out with. [/quote]
