Its just that she seems really un happy. I pressure her NOT to go to the school dances and that she doesnt need a boyfriend, but all of her friends have steady boyfriends. She feels horrid. I am a great mother too!!!!

She shouldn't try to GET a boyfriend. Females who want a boy friend that badly, usually reach out for anyone and end up with the wrong kind of guy for them. Then this guy ends up hurting them badly!
Just tell her to continue to keep herself looking nice and clean, stay out of trouble, use good language, and be polite to 'all' guys. The right guy will come along when she least expects it!

You and your daughters priorities need to be adjusted. All of her problems should be so small. I wouldn't be surprised that the reason she thinks that she should have a boyfriend has more to do with you than anything else. What is she 11, 12? Get her involved in something else. Letting her think that the opposite sex is so important at such a young age is setting her up for a lot of issues later on. She'll have plenty of time for boys. She should be focused on developing a personality, diversifying her interest and becoming a good student and person. Encouraging her towards boys so soon could make you an early grandmother. Then you'll be wondering why.
Post Script
And what do you mean by stating that she' s structured in her build? She's a kid!!!!! Has she even hit puberty yet? Oh my god! You know I pity your daughter having you as a mother.

In 6th grade there are alot better things to be concentrating on and worried for your daughter; grades, homework, chores, being a child!, living life without pressure to grow up too soon. She has the rest of her life to worry about boys and dating. Let her be a kid while she can. Once you are grown you can't go back. Just enjoy her as a child, wait until she is in High School to worry about her dating or having a boyfriend.

Why does she need to "get" a boyfriend? At 6th grade age, she should have more important things in her life than needing a boyfriend. What kind of mother are you anyway?

6th grade is way too young for your daughter to be worried about steady dating with anyone. She shouldn't be doing any dating at all before 16 years old, and then only steady dating when she's ready for marriage. I hope you won't push her into dating when she's not mature enough to handle the situation.

Why is it so 'important' to YOU that your daughter has a 'boyfriend' ... you should simply let her 'grow up at her own pace' and not put your 'needs' ahead of hers. If she's 'structured' and 'strong' those can be 'excellent traits' in a woman ... and someday she'll find the 'person who is right for her' ... in her own good time.

PLEASE WRITE DOWN FIVE REASONS WHY YOU THINK YOUR 6TH GRADER NEEDS A BOYFRIEND ????? !!!!!! -- she's only 11 or 12 isn't she?
If she has expressed concern about this, you should find some activities for her to meet other people (school clubs, church youth groups, sports, music lessons, etc.) Remember, you are not finding these activities for her so she can find a boyfriend -- you are finding these activities to keep her busy and meet new people.

Because she's too young for a boyfriend! Tell her to just enjoy being a kid for now, and have fun while it lasts!

why does your 6th grade daughter NEED a boyfriend? She's only 12, for goodness sake! Let her enjoy being a kid before she's pushed into being an adult
