[quote=Anonymous][quote]10:00 here. I think some people are "group" people, they always have a group around them, they like to do things in a group, etc. Some people are "one-on-one" people. They like to talk to one best friend and confide in that person. Your DD is a "one-on-one" type and doesn't realize it, and she also doesn't realize there are others who are "group" people. Talk to her about that.[/quote] I think this is very true. Therapy sounds like a bit much for an 8th grader who is having a difficult time reading and interacting with social norms (of 8th grade. Who DOESN'T have that problem in 8th grade?) I would be worried that putting too much pressure on her to change her behavior would be counter-productive and would make her all the more self conscious. [/quote]
