Are there any clubs or any info for a 15 year old girl who has no real friends?

Is she interested in Drama. DD3 is 19 now but at 15 she didn't really have any proper friends at school. But she had and still had a good group of friends at Drama club. She found as they al had the same interest there was no pressure in having to conform.

Why does she have no friends?
If you can work that out, then you will be part way towards finding a way to help her develop relationships. What do her school say? What are her interests and strengths?

How did she come to have no friends? Have you just moved, or did she lose friends for some reason, or has she never really had any?

Do something that doesn't need teens to initially interact directly. My kids do music and that would be ideal- a non auditioned choir maybe? Or a sport?

However I totally agree with scribble, you need to sort out underlying issues else nothing will really help...
