Mums worried over school friends

January 27, 2010  

I dropped the daughter off at school today and I had my heart broken!

She has a little girl who she is particularly fond of but this morning the little girl didn’t want to play with her. The daughter wanted to hold her hand going into class but the friend wanted to hold the hand of another!

I felt so sorry for my daughter - over protective aren’t I?

Then my daughter was trying to get in on their conversation as well but she was being ignored. I know it’s pathetic but I felt so sorry for her.

Maybe I have hang ups from my own childhood?

I know she has lots of friends but I just felt as though she’d been rejected - pathetic I know! I’m sure she went into school and didn’t give it a second thought whilst I’ve been fretting about it non stop and sending emails to friends to see what they think.

The daughter can be extremely bossy so maybe she’s getting a taste of her own medicine.

I probably need to encourage her to have more friends and mix more widely - better to have lots of friends at this age.

Maybe I’m feeling more emotional than normal with having just a few more weeks until I give birth.  I can’t believe it - three weeks to go - if I don’t go over!
