Hi everyone. I just signed up there.
My Girl is 12 yr old and she has Aspergers .
She had 2 main friends in high school, 1 bullied the other and she was very stressed being put in the middle but the bullied girl left to go to a new school. so now my girl is left with the bully girl who she thinks is her best friend.
I keep an eye on her Instagram account which she hated but by doing that I found out my girl was self harming. I can't type that without crying. phew ok so I then find out the bully girl self harms too and her mum doesn't mind cos she done it when she was younger!!! This girl also says she's bisexual which now my girl says she thinks she's gay (I don't care if she is) but its such a coincidence all these things. Ive learnt that the bully girl has told mine that she herself has clinical depression, ADHD and a lot of other things which now my girl worries about her and I've discovered these are all lies. my girl now knows she lied but she's still her best friend. We are worried sick. My son who is her twin is heartbroken too and thinks its his fault cos they bicker sometimes, of course I've told him not but he has Autism and struggles. My husband and I never dreamed she would ever self harm. The bully girl runs into school all happy and pulls up her sleeve happily showing my girl her new cuts, glorifying it. School were horrified but the bully girls mum didn't show up for a meeting. I'm feeling like there is gonna be nothing else to do about her. School have moved them in the class like separated them but they still meet up at break and lunch. I had so much hatred for the bully that it was starting to take over my mind, she's only 12 yr old so I had to pull myself together then my girl came home asking to go out to play with her after school!!. Im at a loss..My girls self harm was not deep cuts, almost like paper cuts so I reckon she knew it was wrong but cos this other girl was saying "it feels too good" I think she went with it. She promises never to do it again but I'm struggling to trust her now.
Thank you for reading and my advice to anyone is keep checking social media. it could save your child.
Heartbroken mum
