My 15 year old daughter is really struggling at the moment with friends, she is sad most of the time, the only time she is beaming is when she is with her bf and his family.
I believe this is because she can be herself and not be judged, because when she is with her friends they moan when she is sad and moan when she is happy and messing around, and when she is sad or ill her friends always say she is faking it.
She has one best friend who does everything with us, holidays, days out etc. But when we do anything with anyone else we get moaned at.
Her friends always come to her when they have an issue with other friends or boyfriends, and she will help them in anyway possible, but when its the other way round they say its not all about you and hardly listen or change the subject.
My daughter also gets moaned at because she doesn't like going out, because all her friends do is walk the streets and stalk there boyfriends, seeing who they are with and if they are chatting to other girls etc. Now I have a parent asking me wouldn't she go out for a little bit next week as everyone is going out, only because I have her daughter at my house after school, her daughter has fomo and needs to check her boyfriend isnt up to anything.
Her best friend will also stalk my daughters location, where are you going, who are you with.
We are both struggling at the moment with her sadness all the time.
She is a worrier and gets on with her friendships because she doesn't want to lose anyone.
