My little girl has had problems integrating at school, she spent from reception until half way through year 2 being best friends with the same child who would leave her out if she didn't do as was always expected.
Since this all started she has been very much a loner at school.
I told my daughter we would take other children out and she should make Jew friendships, this made my daughter happier, but friendships fizzled out.
My daughter now plays with a girl the year above her, but she has no one to sit with at lunch time, and these friends from last year are nowhere to be seen.
Until I talk about having another friendship day, then she's talking about inviting these girls, I just don't get it. Am I being unreasonable to think if these children don't seem to want anything else to do with my DD I really shouldn't be taking them out?
How on earth can they not ask her to have lunch with them, or to play with them but are very excited to join us for days out?
All three of them are lovely girls, just have some issues socialising.
Not sure if it's worth saying that my little girl goes to a breakfast club, after school club and various sports activities, where she seems to get on fine. Always has someone to play with. It's just lunch times she struggles.
I'm not sure if I'm being unreasonable expecting it all to be good. I spent much of my school life worrying that I didn't have anyone to eat with so maybe it's all my insecurities being rubbed off onto her... But I hate the idea of her being on her own when everyone else would have someone to sit with...
