[quote=Anonymous]18:51 again --Do not interrogate your daughter about her mood and feelings. This should be handled by a professional. Quizzing her about her feelings or taking it personally that she's not confiding in you will not be helpful. The one conversation you should have with her is a gentle one about whether she'd like to see a therapist. If she says no, you should see one so you can discuss how to proceed. I think its always a good idea for parents to get their own professional help when a child has issues to get advice on dealing with it as well as dealing with the stress of the situation. I think it also sounds like you were so worried about your daughter having friends that you've overlooked a lot with this other family. You are right that its not good for her to be isolated but this kind of friendship isn't healthy either. There's another way and she needs help finding it.[/quote]
