My daughter is here on College break. Since we recently moved here she doesn't know anyone. Is there a group she can meet with to hang with people her own age?

Maybe try Margarita Republic at night. After dinner it turns into a nightclub with mostly younger people. A lot of people that work in the restaurants etc. I believe there are others but not sure where.

I know you are trying to do what is best for your child, has your daughter actually asked you to help her find people to hang with?

There is a facebook group called the villages young adults for adult children living in the villages. It has the Saved By the Bell tag on the cover for the group.

I totally agree with this. She may just enjoy hanging with family, but definitely don't send her to Margarita Republic.

my daughter met her friends mostly on the fb page mentioned, & @ the family pools. once she got a job nearby she really built a 'friend base'. it's tough, some young people don't even want to show their faces, for their own reasons.

All the young people I used to know were left to their own devices...with restrictions. my parents would never try to find people my age for me and I wouldn't want them to. why do you?

Parents just want to help direct her. Not so bad as long as they just turn over the info to her and leave her to find her own social life

What is wrong with Margarita Republic? Friends of ours daughters go there every time they visit and seem to like it late night.

First of all, welcome! I too spent my first years here with our youngest son still at university. He came and went during breaks. I was worried a bit about his isolation. He made terrific friends however, with an older couple next door. They had worked in the science field he was pursuing. My son used his time here to visit with us but kept in touch with his friends online.
I guess I didn’t answer your specific question, but just wanted encourage and welcome you to TV.
