Dear IML,
My daughter's friends have all become very negative in general. They complain about their teachers, their homework...basically their whole life. My daughter is a very bubbly girl who is quite positive and gets along fabulously with her teachers. Unfortunately, lately my daughter has been coming home not talking, wanting to be alone. I think the other girls' negativity has been making my daughter feel as though she has no friends. What should I do to make her feel better?
