She seems a very happy child for the most part. But yesterday while crying about something, she also confided in me something that has been bothering her. It came as I was talking to Amanda about how the stepkids leave Jayden out and how would she feel if it was done to her?
Well, it introduced a subject that I thought was ok at school, however, looks like it isn't. She says she feels left out. For the past two years, she's been trying so hard to be a friend to this girl in her class. They have playdates but when it comes to school, this friend will pick someone else to play with, even after promising Amanda that she will play with her at school.
I've tried different playdates over the years to widen Amanda's friend base, but even these girls have their own friends to hang out with while in school.
There's a new girl that she's been gradually getting to be friends with and she hasn't been in school for the past days, so Amanda is finding herself left out at school.
I'd love to see Amanda have one close buddy again. She did in kindergarten and it was the sweetest thing to see. But when we moved schools beginning of grade 1 for her, she hasn't found that close friend yet.
