My daugther is stuck on her best friend and ignores other girls
How can I help my daughter be more social at school? Her K classroom basically assigned Best Friends and hers is unable to do activities outside of school, so my daughter seems to miss out on movies and hanging out with some really nice girls who do things on the weekends. My daughter is lots of fun and makes friends easily, but when she's at school she pretty much excludes other girls and is completely focused on her Best Friend. We went to an open house and she ignored tons of girls while she was whining about not being able to do anything with her BF. I've seen her at the movies and she hurts some of the girls' feelings by asking about her BF or saying she'd rather be seeing the movie with her BF. I was hoping they might not be in the same first grade class this year, but they are. I thought it would fizzle out but my daughter has spent another evening moping and crying about not being able to do stuff with her BF while lots of girls wanted to talk to her at the open house. I'm not very sociable so I try to tell her it's better to do things alone, but I know she loves being around other girls.
