My dd is in yr 7 and has settled in fairly well, struggles with the work, but I am trying to keep on top of that with her form tutor.
What upset me tonight was that coming home from school she was telling me how people think she is weird and these are people she was friends with at the beginning of yr 7!
Now dd does have SPLD and lots of traits of ASD - we are seeing the Paed tomorrow as dd is getting depressed, feels lonely but just doesn't know how to act normal. She is 12 tomorrow and when she is around other kids acts more like 6! Now if she behaves like this at school I guess the other kids do find her odd! But I just don't know where to go from here and what to say to her....the age gap is becoming bigger and bigger and much more noticeable now at high school.
Thanks
Sarah
