It's very scary for kids when they first start school. They don't know anyone at first, so they try to make friends and are met with resistance and ridicule by other students.

The only thing you can tell them is keep trying, even thought it's painful for you the parent as well. Weeks go by and your baby hasn't made any friends, what do you say then?
