My daughter was on a rainbow waiting list from age 4, they have been full and now she is 7 the local brownies is full too. I got a call from the local commissioner just before Christmas who told me that a brand new brownies unit was opening if i wanted my daughter to join. So I jumped at the chance and my daughter has been loving her first few weeks as a brownie. The leaders are fab, the only issue is none of her friends go as they all want to wait for the local unit to have space (they have 40 kids on a waiting list so it's not going to be soon). Basically the other parents are refusing there kids to go because it's not the kids from their local school who go. The part of town we live is quiet posh and the locals don't like mixing with the other kids from other schools. I love the fact the brownies she goes too have 20 kids from 8 different schools and she can make new friends but she is wanting to quit since none of her friends are there even though she admits she loves the activities and the leaders. Has anyone any ideas on how I could convince her to stay at the unit.
