My 12 year old son has a very hard time talking to people outside our family. He doesn't have anything to be self-conscious about, He has plenty of boys his age that like him, but when they speak to him he just acts like he doesn't hear them. He wants to speak but says he just can't.He is getting really down over it because everyone else has a best friend and he feels left out. Any suggestions?? Is it time to see a professional?

So, something is up this year and, for the life of me, I don't know what it is. My daughter has never had trouble in school. Never. She has no behavioral problems, is not shy, has shown no evidence of learning disability. Last year she was on the principal's honor roll and won the citizenship award, so no academic or behavior problems. Then comes 5th grade. Still no behavior problems, but when her progress report came out she had a "C" in math. Okay, that's fine. We don't expect perfection and a "C" is certainly not failing, but...

I know tact and 6th grade are not exactly synonymous! So, yesterday when my 11 year old told me that she and two of her friends were going to go to the library at lunch and exchange gifts I was alarmed. My daughter has developed a nice group of friends. There are about 6 to 8 in this collection. It shifts regularly but not with hard feelings. Daughter is closest to one she has been best friends with since 3rd grade. This friend was NOT included in the group. This sounded like a very bad idea to me and I said so. I said I would...
