My DD is in the process of transition between two friendship groups. This is another topic in itself as the new group are seen as the “popular girls” in her year. Whilst she’s working her way into becoming part of this group, she feels unable to invite anyone to a party or sleepover for fear that hardly anyone will come as she doesn’t know her new friends that well and the group dynamics seem to change very quickly. It’s really sad, it’s partly her own doing and she’s learning the perils of popularity and partly her age. Birthday is coming up in a few weeks time and I’m at a complete loss as to what to plan. At primary before we moved to a different part of the country, she used to have parties, lovely sleepovers and last year we went abroad and now it’s looking like we need to plan something solo to mask the fact we can’t do what she really wants but is too anxious to have incase no one turns up - help !
