you can make friends and not to worry in public school those kids are not good friends they use you more then others think its in high school you have good friends that stick with you over the years..my kids in the lower grades once graduated there friends left but in high school well they wont leave its like a second family having them talked about..for now daughter only Tex's due to them gone to school / collage and stuff when there home on holidays then its way different
the best place to get them cheap is wal-mart or second hand store's ..only buy if you play in the snow other then that don't waste your money my youngest has 4 pairs of ski pants too small but there like size 6x i think and now just got a size 8 or 10 for this year and we only got them cause he go's camping in the winter with scouts and this will be his last year maybe..so who knows what life will have in the future..
