Do you 'enjoy' spending time with your kids?
- Yes, most of the time we really have fun together
- Sometimes it's fun, sometimes it's really dull and aggravating
- Honestly most of the time it's not fun at all, but it's not supposed to be fun
- I really don't enjoy it at all, and wish I could spend less time with them

What's the best way to help my young teen with low self-esteem issues, short of putting her in therapy? ITA.
8 replies [ Reply | Watch | More12. Feeling like nobody likes her. Having some trouble making new friends in middle school, despite having had an active social life in elem school Now she is no longer friends with the elem school friends because they moved on to other people. FWIW, my dd is thin, pretty, and smart. No superficial issues that would cause peers to turn the other way.
[ Reply | More ]She might just be shy. Is she in any extracurriculars that would make her feel part of a "team?"
[ Reply | More ]yes -- she does sports, but never seems to make new friends in the sports. Example: Last week, between two games of a double-header, four or five girls on the team went out to lunch (one of the moms took them), and dd wasn't invited. True, there were about four other girls not invited either, but the ones who went out were all in her grade and two of them she has known since Kindergarten.
