Finding peers is never easy. Some kids are luckier than others and click early, some move in and out of relationships, some take a long time to find someone they feel comfortable with. As our DD developed more interests it became easier to find commonalities with others, which was good, but they still weren't peers.

Based on my own experience, I found peers later in life and I still only have a few. They are distributed all over the world but we stay in touch.
