She used to play with other boys and girls, so what has changed?
What do you think the parents are worried about?
Are girls and boys treated differently, especially when they reach adolescence?
Are girls in the class allowed to play? What games do you play? Do you face a similar situation at home?
What options can there be for the girl in the situation?
Suggested advice: Playing is as important for girls as it is for boys. It is necessary for good health and for a happy childhood. Talk to your parents about this. If your parents are concerned for your safety, get together a group of girls who feel as you do, and find a safe place to play. If you are part of a group, your parents can be assured of your safety; also the neighbours might then stop pointing fingers at you.
