It's hard, starting high school, as the new person, I know, I was moved around a few times in my lifetime. I went from 7th grade to 8th grade in different states. Then in 10th grade I transferred to a new city, altogether.
It's hard not having all those social bonds that others form through the years of growing up together. Even the parents involved aren't as familiar with one another. My 4th grader, soon to be 5th grader, often talks about others, in terms of what grade they started his school.
These others kids in your school, could very well have been out playing sports together since they were kids. 5/6 year old kids.
Society is difficult too, because some households have two parents working and others have one. And without the bonding over the years of time spent at various events together, how is so and so's parents even supposed to realize that maybe they could offer to have the new kid over to their home for dinner.
And if you aren't reaching out to say, hey, let's hang out together, how would your IRL friends know that you may want to get out of the home?
Do you use XBOX LIVE, at all?! It's been really fun to listen to my son, talk to his classmates!!!

nope, I don't have any video games. I don't consider myself to be that spoiled.
