My 13 yr old DD has been having a few friendship issues lately. The arguments and disagreements are usually over stupid little things and normally occur on group chats or group facetime. Most of the fall outs were happening about 930 at night just before she goes to bed, so last week we limited her phone use and from 830 it would be taken away I made it quite clear I wasn't confiscating it for bad behaviour it was being taken away to protect her from the fall outs - fast forward a week and everything is now 20 times worse now as because she didn't have her phone she has been left out and now this friendship circle have now completely ousted her because if she doesn't want to talk to them on the phone then she isn't a true friend. Apparently it is all my fault and she is so unhappy far more unhappier when she was allowed the phone and they were having fall outs. The fall outs usually occur when one of the girls there are between 4 and 6 of them in the group shows off about an achievement, event, new clothing, i phone etc and likes to make all the others jealous. She went off to school so upset today as she has no friends and I am now the big evil mother who has made the problem 1000 times worse. If I had kept out of it and not interfered she says she would have sorted it out, but when they are all screaming abuse at each other at 930 at night and then my DD is so upset and angry till 1130 at night surely I have to intervene. I really think now maybe I did do the wrong thing as taking her phone does seem to have escalated the problem. There is always a lot of posts regarding phone usage on this board so just wanted on whether people think I made the right decision and where do we go from here???
