Dear Care and Feeding: I’m not sure she wanted me to know this.
My 6-year-old son is incredibly sweet, a little quirky, social, and profoundly gifted. He’s currently at a tiny, project-based learning, K-8 urban private school that is serving him very well and he LOVES. The teachers adore him, the curriculum is interesting, and it can be individualized to keep him challenged.
The problem is that the class is only 12 kids, nine of which are girls. While everyone seems to like him and is friendly with him, no one seeks him out as a friend or partner for activities. The girls understandably generally gravitate towards each other for their friendships and the two other boys are much more rough-and-tumble than my son and have buddied up with each other.
We will pursue outside activities for friends, but our experience so far is that the kids in these programs change all the time and families aren’t looking to make friends from across the city, so there hasn’t been good traction for connections there. We also live downtown so it’s not like kids from the neighborhood are out playing on the street as an opportunity to make friends.

Chief Justice John Roberts and Justice Brett Kavanaugh joined with the court's liberals in affirming a lower-court ruling that found a likely violation of the Voting Rights Act in an Alabama congressional map with one majority Black seat out of seven congressional districts in a state where more than one in four residents is Black.
