My daughter is in the 5th grade and doesn't interact with children her age. when anyone talks to her or asks her questions she just shrugs her shoulders. shes on depression medicine because of the loss of her grandparents years ago, she told the psychotherapist that she had feelings of killing her self she has a second grade reading level. I am needing help finding out what to do with my daughter. her medicine shes on is fluxen not sure on the spelling. and how to talk to her about her period.

It could be that your daughter is really struggling with the lost of her grandparents, it takes people different amounts of time to grieve and move on. But it could be something else as well, if her reading level is that low she may have a learning disability. Has she always had trouble interacting with children her age? Does she avoid eye contact? It could be something such as Asbergers(sp) syndrome, it is uncommon and I am no doctor I'm just trying to give you some different things that it could be.
I think the best thing for you to do is to sit down with your daughter and talk to her. Ask her how she's feeling, how school is going, why she doesn't interact more, etc. Be involved in your kids life, show her that you care and that you are there for her. Grief is a very very difficult thing for young children to cope with, so don't pressure her. Let her know that her grandparents loved her and will always be in her heart. Let her keep going to see her therapist, often times it is good for them to have someone that they can trust and will talk to without any judgements.
Hope I Helped & Good Luck :)

here is what I think she is having a problem and it is your job to get to the meat of what it is, but then again somethings you can't control. so prey ask god and give the child sometime. To make sure she does not kill herself be sure to lift her up in mind when she is feel down. stay involved no matter what now is not the time to back out. prey, be strong good luck god bless!

How is your child doing in school? Grade wise.
If your child is in the 5th grade and has a 2nd grade reading level it could be that she has a learning disorder and takes her frustration on giving up. It is very well a possibility.
If she is on depression medication and is showing signs of depression and the medications don't seem to be working then maybe consult her doctor about possibly trying another medication
Her period is something that is good to explain at an early age, You should sit down with your daughter and explain to her what becoming a woman means and what to expect. How a period comes once a month, Every woman goes through it.
