[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I'm a middle school teacher and the only thing I don't like about my work is seeing how tough the Bar/Bat Mitzvah scene can be for kids who are excluded.  Your daughter is handling this situation with resilience and grace, OP.   Good for her!  [b]You might just want to mention to her that you're impressed by the way she reached out to her friends to create a fun evening for them. [/b] That would also give her an opening to talk about how she feels, but even if she doesn't, she'll know you're proud.   [/quote]

I like this.

My kid is off at college now, but when he was a wee nerd, we could talk occasionally about what it was like being a nerd when I was growing up and what it was like for him, not in an "Oh poor us" way, but more about what expectations are now vs then, what it's like being the nerdy kid of a nerd vs being the nerdy kid of a prom queen, and how I admired his lemonade-making. Also how much I liked his actual friends and the way they treated each other. [/quote]
