My just turned 13 year old daughter has a group of 6 or 7 friends in her friendship group . Most of the time they seem to get along well but when ever there is an issue my daughter seems to get the blame and nobody from her friend group backs her up even though they do that for others in the group.
I'm starting to wonder if it is my daughter that is causing these problems although I don't think it is she is not your typical teenager and is quite immature for her age . She is kind and funny and as far as I can tell just tries her best to be friendly with everyone. My other thought is that maybe the people in the group don't actually want my daughter as part of this group but don't know how to tell her ?
When things go wrong my daughter often comes home from school in tears but doesn't think she has done anything wrong .
I've tired lots of things to improve the situation including speaking to parents and the school . Things always improve afterwards until another problem occurs and we are back at square one . I'm at a loss on what to do next hence why I'm writing here.
We have also spoken to her school about changing her form class but my daughter is totally against this but we think having a fresh start might be the best thing for her
Any advice or ideas on how to help would be appreciated
