[quote=Anonymous]This is very typical of 6th and 7th grade. Friend groups change. She needs to find her new people. As an aside, parents often post that they considered a new school for a kid, but then decided to let the kid go where the friends are going. Parents who decide not to change schools at middle school because of "grade school friendships" need to know up front that this is a likelihood. It is less painful if the shift away from old friends happens when you switch schools, than if you are the same school and suddenly your "friends" won't sit with you at lunch anymore. Not saying everyone should change schools because this happens; rather that if you were thinking of it anyway, friends shouldn't necessarily be the only or primary reason you don't make the move.[/quote]
