I have a ten year old dd and she has been part of a group of five friends for the past couple of years. I had an arrangement with one of the mums to share picks ups and drop offs for a while as we both work, but as my hours changed recently I had to tell the other mum I couldn't help any more. She was fine about it I thought, and actually changed her hours so she could manage better without the help.
Before this, we had put our house up for sale and the house we are buying is about two streets away from theirs. When we told her she said she would have to move!!! She also invited my dd for a sleepover a few weeks ago and then said she always breaks things at her house (this is after having my dd at her house a couple of times a week for a year and saying nothing!)
Both girls will be at the same secondary school after this year, as will the rest of the group of friends, and we are moving to be nearer the school. Ever since we told the other mum about the move she has been increasingly unfriendly, and has now started ignoring my dd when she sees her, even saying hi to two of the other girls and blanking her.
I am really upset as I dont know what I have done, and my dd thinks she has done something wrong as well which is awful. I did think she was a friend not just a school run acquaintance, but she seems really angry that we are moving and annoyed that my dd will be at secondary with hers, even though we have said for the last year which school we would choose. I cant fathom it out....does anyone have any suggestions what I should do, I am really worried she is trying to engineer a fall out and this would bady affect my dd at achool this year and on starting her new school.
