Hi my eldest dd who is 9 is currently very sad & unhappy at school as she feels she is always left out and has no-one to play with. She has always ben part of a three-some but unfortunately 3 becomes a crowd & she is the one always left out and the other 2 are mean to her. She is a very sensitive 9 year old & takes all this to heart & says she wants to move schools because of it. It is also making her very sad & angry at home & she takes alot of her anger out on her 2 little sisters.
Don't get me wrong - I know she has her faults but I just don't like to see her so sad & don't really know what to do next - I've suggested she tries to make new friends but she goes to a very small school & this isn't an easy option.
I am very good friends with both of the parents - should I speak to them or ask her teacher for advice? Any other thoughts - sorry for the ramble but she's just been crying in her room & wrote a letter to me saying how sad she is.

Does your DD have out of school activities where she can make other friends? Maybe she needs to boost her morale away from school for a while.

She does do gym after school where she's very friendly with some-one 3 years older than her! This isn't connected to the school so maybe I should see what the school has to offer - thanks!
