[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP, you and your kid need to accept that he is who he is. [b]The friends who treat him well are the friends worth keeping.[/b] Many kids have empty weekends, and mama can't fix this. Your kid would be less likely to be home alone if he weren't striving to be friends with the kids who don't want him. The kids that do like him would be put off by this. [/quote] The problem is, this thinking will lead his current (former?) friends to drop him, since he's pretty obviously using them as a fallback. [/quote] Still can't figure out how folks are concluding that he is using his friends as a fallback....[/quote] I think because of this from the OP: [i]In 8th grade, alas, he tried to expand friendship groups and move into more "popular" set. That didn't really gel and he ended the year back with his original friendship groups.[/i][/quote]
