[quote=Anonymous]OP, my 13 year old DS is this way too. He begged for a phone last year for Instagram and texting, but hasn't done either in months. He would really like to be more social outside of school but doesn't seem to know how, other than hanging with kids on our street. He was never shy but in the past few months realized that his buddies at school weren't inviting him to all their gatherings, etc. They live in other neighborhoods, but it's like he's a second-tier friend or something, and now he's afraid to initiate. My DH and I aren't so great at socializing outside our core group either, so I don't know how or even whether to help. I wish I'd been braver myself at this age.[/quote]
