[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I'm starting to feel sort of bad for Suzie. If she's in fifth grade, this girl is only 10 or 11 years old and has already been through a lot. I've watched how the one emotional and sort of troublesome girl in my kid's group gets treated by the moms and I'm sure the girls are learning from those moms. I wish there were a better solution that involved helping Suzie rather than excluding her, but I know that's contrary to the direction the rest of the folks in here are going. ¯\_(?)_/¯[/quote] I feel terribly for Suzie but what would you suggest? It's impossible to plan some things without an accurate headcount and I absolutely can't handle her behavior on a trip, it's challenging enough to handle it at a meeting. The girls and moms are kind to her and I always match the kids up for activities myself so that she doesn't get excluded (but that said, she usually drops out of whatever we are doing partway through leaving her "team" or her partner high and dry). I am genuinely curious what you'd suggest I do? I don't know if she can come on the trip. If she does come on the trip I need her mom to support her. Her mom has proven an unreliable chaperone but I am willing to give her one more chance...but she won't even write back![/quote]
