Dd2 is 10 and is a lovely, lovely girl but lately I am a bit worried about her. She seems to be down all the time and does not want to get up for school. Usually she loves school. She is a sensitive child but usually very sociable and has lots of friends. Lately though, she seems to only want to spend time with one friend which I feel is not that healthy.
She also seems to give up on things very easily if they are not working out like after school activities. If she has one off day she wants to just give up. Yesterday, her friend marked her test paper wrong (marked a load wrong that were actually correct) and she knew this and just allowed the lower score to be recorded by the teacher without saying anything.
She seems to have lost her lust for life but I am not sure if it's just hormones. I don't think she is being bullied or anything. Is this just an age thing?
