[quote=Anonymous]OP, my parents spent years basking in what they thought was an ideal community while I was ridiculed and picked on every day.  All their nice friends!  all the nice activities centered at school!  all the nice families in my siblings' classes!

The problem was that I didn't come clean enough with my parents over what was happening.  It lasted for years.

As an adult, I now go extensively out of my way to avoid social failure.  I hate entertaining, worry constantly that no one will show up if I invite them, obsess over even simple conversations after they are over (wondering how I screwed up), and have trouble believing that people actually like me even if they seem to.

I know who created this: the kids I went to school with, when my parents couldn't protect me because I didn't tell them.

And there are uncountable numbers of kids out there who are light-years worse off than I am.

YOUR KID TOLD YOU.  YOU KNOW.

Do something.  Rescue the adult version of her while there is time.  Be brave enough to build a new community that supports your kid, not just you.[/quote]
