Are all teenagers out every night?

[blondel0216]

My 16 year old son finished his GCSEs in June, had his prom and one party and hasn't been out or socialised since.
He's a good boy but isn't very outgoing but I've seen his friends out and about in parks and generally just enjoying this carefree summer. He says no one texts him and he doesn't want to invite himself. I don't want to push him at all. He's quite a young 16 and can be a bit cautious.
My DS has always struggled a bit socially as he's not sporty and is car mad and can come across as a bit "different" sometimes but he had school friends and always walked to and from school with the kids that now ignore him!!
Guess I'm just wondering if we aren't alone here? Am I fussing unnecessarily- my husband says just let him find his way!

I came about this thread as I was looking to post about the same thing. My ds (also 16) has done very little all summer. He's stayed at a friends house for a couple of nights but spent the rest of his time at home. He's done some reading and prep for next year and done a lot of on-line gaming so has had interaction with friends, just not physically met up with them. It's a relief that it's not just him.
