[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It’s part of growing up.  Maybe they are not really her friends.  Find a wider friend group or different friends. It’s painful, but life.  [/quote]

OP here. Yes she has come to that conclusion. It has been a tough week for her. She had to listen to how great the party was on Monday by some "friends" that are not too self aware. The friend who had the party is one that I've been asked to give rides to and include in a number of things by her mom. I am staying out of it, but I will no longer drive her anywhere in the future. DD is chin up, but she is happy it's Friday.[/quote]

My DD is going through something similar. Friends that she introduced have been hanging out regularly and not including her. It's extremely painful. One of the other kids was new to the area and my DD was the first to accept her and include her and introduce her to these other girls.

I'll never make an accommodation for them or their families again. (And yes, they asked as recently as this week).[/quote]

Same situation here. Introduced the new girl in town to her friends and now new girl is taking over the group and leaving dd out.

I'm still helping the family out with rides and stuff as long as my dd isn't objecting, though I admit it is hard. Friend groups can shift quickly at this age and dd still likes her original friends too much to move on. [/quote]

Why are you still helping the family with rides? That sends the wrong message. Talk to your DD about having self respect. Your DD is worthy of friends who treat her well. She needs to move on if her old friends are going along with excluding her.[/quote]

Many reasons, including helping a new neighbor mom whose spouse is overseas a lot.

My daughter still is friends with many in the group, so I'm not going to have her be the bad guy and start excluding the new girl.[/quote]
