[quote=Anonymous]Send your kid to public school -- or at least a different (perhaps larger) private school. If the parents are acting cliquey, then the kids will eventually act that way, too. If your child is already being shut out and even the friendly mother won't tell you why (when it's obvious she knows), that isn't a place you want your kid to be. Either it will continue to be an uphill battle for you and your kid, or your kid will become cliquey like the others in order to fit in. When moms and kids for whatever reason shut someone out, it is not the kind of thing that blows over. It may become less obvious/severe, but I doubt your kid will ever be able to fit in with any circle of friends there. I'd start looking now for a new school in September. And again, maybe give public school a chance. If you really don't want to switch schools, perhaps have coffee again with that mother and say flat out, "this isn't just about me; it's affecting my child. I understand you're uncomfortable telling me, but we're talking about my kid being socially shut out. I deserve to know what this is about." If she doesn't tell you, then she's not your friend and she's almost just as bad as the people who are shutting you and your child out. [/quote]
