Daughter hates school, no friends
My daughter started high school this year. She made a friend initially with a boy which was good and she likes video games and is a bit 'young' - not into fashion, makeup etc. He left and she made a couple of other friends but they all have new friends now and she's been left out.
She's upset and hates school, but part of it is that she just wants the attention of 1 good friend, and doesn't like groups. She doesn't always understand social cues.
Lately a couple of kids in her class (which is also a class made up of kids with learning difficulties), have been teasing her in class. One called her a ut istic the other day for asking the teacher the time more than once, one called her a boy (even though she doesn't look like one). She seems to think she is badly bullied but the things that have come up haven't been terrible by high school standards. She has somewhere to go at recess and lunch but no friends to hang out with.
She won't really take any advice i give her and so I feel helpless and don't know what I can do. Changing schools probably won't fix the issue as teenagers will be teenagers anywhere (academically this school has really catered well to her needs).
How do I help? She has recently joined an out of school program but hasn't really clicked with the girls yet. She doesn't exactly try either!
