[quote=Anonymous]OP, consider that all of these kids are young, immature, and have undeveloped social skills. For some, that shows up as how you describe your daughter-- sensitive and not well-regulated. For others, it shows up as what the other girls are doing-- impulsivity, or lacking the skills or discretion to disengage politely. It honestly seems like you're being a lot more forgiving of your daughter's social behavior than you are of theirs-- and that's normal for us parents-- but remember, they're all kids, they all have sensitive feelings and poor self-control, and they all deserve the caring perspective that we have for our own kids. There really is no solution other than diversifying her social network and developing her social skills. Everyone can benefit from strong social skills and it doesn't mean that anything's wrong with your DD, just that social skills are what kids this age need to learn. [/quote]
