My teenage daughter would like advice on how to make friends in her new school. What do you think she should do?

I think your teenage daughter should start by taking an active interest in the people and conversations around her. This could include introducing herself to people, asking questions about their interests, and joining conversation topics where it feels appropriate. She can also look for activities that she has in common with her peers, such as sports teams, art, music, or other after school activities. Taking the initiative to ask someone to join her for lunch, coffee, or another outing can also help to foster meaningful friendships. Lastly, it's important for her to be patient and make sure that she is comfortable with the people that she is spending time with.
