[quote=Anonymous]I have a middle schooler who much to my shock has become "cool" in middle school. He's in 7th grade. He was not cool in elementary school. He's not sporty. He's tall. I am not tall so I am shocked by how much that seems to help. He's nice looking. He's very comfortable talking to all different kinds of people. He's pretty fun and silly and has a good sense of humor. Has always been very comfortable talking to girls. The boys who can talk to and be friends with girls in middle school get a lot of social points. I think it's a terrible thing to focus on or for them to focus on and I wish my kid just had a nice group of friends and that was the end of it. But they all notice and it's a lot to ask them not to care about it. I think and hope they grow out of caring.[/quote]
