How's this for peer pressure?

My concern would be for the other girls . What the ????

That's a sad state of affairs. Maybe it was just a nasty joke played on her.

thanks for posting to It's 3X the points, 3X the rewards!

Girls can be crueler than boys.

You can't MAKE someone be a lesbian. And you can't *ask* someone to become a lesbian. That shows their young age.
Now, I have friends who decided they were gay/lesbian at VERY young ages. So that isn't my issue... my issue is that they are trying to pressure her.

When I was in 7th grade (I was.... hmm.... 13?) a girl I went to church with asked me to do some sexual activities with her, and if I would, then I would accept her invitation to a sleepover. I declined. She started gossiping that I was "into girls" at church because I wouldn't take her up on her offer to have sex..... clearly stating, I WASN'T into girls.
I know she asked several people. I don't know if anyone ever said yes. I know that she's now happily married to a male (she married him the day before her high school graduation).
I think it's really sad that they won't talk to someone because she's NOT gay. If they ARE gay, then how would they feel if people stopped talking to them because of it? In many towns, they may encounter that very thing. To stop talking to someone because they aren't the same sexual orientation as you, shows a lack of maturity, no matter how old you are.

Maybe she can find other friends, she doesn't need to be friends with them if they don't want to be friends.. It might blow over and the girls will start talking to her again.

Yikes! Maybe it's best that they aren't friends now. I know that doesn't ease the pain much. Give your little girl a hug from me.

That's kind of crazy. They don't even know their own minds yet and to think they could just ask your daughter to 'become' lesbian as if it is a choice.

Kids! Ya just gotta love 'em.

That's really stupid.... Is it "cool" now to be a lesbian? How sad.

That is just nuts. I would have told her, if that is how they are acting, then they were never her true friends to start with.

Yes, I think that they think it's cool. The girls are popular, too. I wonder if it's the current acceptance such as California's new law. My daughter has told me this before and I told her to be friends and non-judgemental, but now, I've told her to stay away from them just because they are trying to bully her. I keep her close to me. It's the only way to keep kids safe. They asked her to kiss them, and she said, no. So now, she's out.

Also, she has lots of friends but most of her good friends are boys.

These girls sound like they are unsure of themselves. By pressuring your daughter, she would validate them. Praise your daughter for being strong enough to make up her own mind and not be pressured.

I wouldn't have a problem with someone being a lesbian, but what they did and are doing to her as far as being a friend is just wrong.

Man and I thought the peer pressure was bad at my age, now it is not have you kissed or whatever but what sex that person was!

I really have a problem thinking that it is the new law that is influencing them, but I am not 14, so who knows.

I would advise your daughter not to associate with these girls anymore!

She's better off if that it how they want to be. She did the right thing.

Isn't that a sad thing? If she agreed they'd probably laugh and tell everyone and ruin her reputation. She did the right thing. See, I told you you're a good example for her!

I'm so proud of her. She tells me everything. We are so close. I can't believe how much I love her. I just wish I had the courge to tell their parents.

Well, that's just wrong.

What they did in pressuring her is just wrong. It really does show their immaturity. I think your daughter handled it very well.

I can remember being pressured in to saying I was a lesbian in school as well. When I clearly wasn't. I just happen to hang around a few friends that were. It was a big arguement and caused me to loose a frienship because the so called friend assumed I was lying. I think this friend was what today you would call a closet gay.

That is such odd behavior! Kids are weird and cruel. Kudos to your daughter for politely declining their invitation!

I am glad you daughter stood her ground and said no to them Girls are so mean at thar age.
