Im 14 and i recently started doing this volunteer thing at my school where i have a certain 7th-8th grade kid (one who is usually troubled, but for the most parts its always the bratty, s-l-u-t-t-y 8th grade girls with their drama issues) and i help them with their problems throughout the year (i have had a pretty rough life when i was younger and i have overcome the pain so my counselor suggested that i was fit enough to take on a job like this...so anyways my kid is this extremely smart shy girl who is kind of in between popular and just a normal kid...she tells me she sort of lacks people skills..she says she has these fantasies all the time about her being this beautiful supermodel like woman and she'll carry out these story long fantasies of her and like some celebrity or cute guy she likes...i mean she told me about this fantasy she has where shes this beautiful girl and she grows up being best friends with with a celebrity and they end up marrying and she says she'll think the story over and over again...when shes in bed, when shes in school, when shes at home eating dinner...and she says recently her fantasies have turned sexual...she basically from my understanding obsesses over making up a story about her and these guys to the point where she watches every video of them and stares at all their pictures and she'll read their twitter & stuff constantly because she thinks she'll somehow know this person by doing all this...its kind of like stalking from a distance...anyways so she says she has friends but because her early life wasnt so great she lacks people skills and she has tons of friends and she cries because when she goes on facebook or what not she sees all these statuses of her friends hanging out with other friends or going to church or something or hanging out with family and she never has anyone over, doesn't go to church (i gave her a bible because she says she would like to learn more about God) or hang out w/ family because her dad and her moved from from across the country a year ago and she has no family here and she had a hard time making friends...i can understand it must be difficult i remember moving to a new school and having no friends and what not...anyways i have a meeting with her Monday and i have absolutely no idea what to say...what kind of advice should i give her? please help..thanks in advance.
