She's already said she doesn't have many friends and worries if people like her or not. This could be a learning curve for her. Some people develop slower than others.

The punishment was quite tame though. The chains weren't even short. Loads of room to move around. Lily and Daze treated it like a slumber party.

Thomas was pumping an airbed up and Daze was pulling it away to check it was inflating correctly. Obviously no experience of airbeds...

I agree she seems socially unaware - in fact, for me, she is severely lacking in social skills for a 20 year old.

She doesn’t even seem to be aware of very basic norms of behaviour in a social setting. Yet, these are skills she surely would have been taught at home and would have been demonstrated, and expected of her, during her schooling?

If I had a child of any age behaving as Lily does, as a responsible parent, I would be addressing it for her own benefit, by setting expectations and boundaries to help her learn and control herself. Surely, as a parent, you would want her to learn age appropriate behaviour in order for her to be able to fit in, make friends and be accepted?

Part of me is truly wondering whether this is an act to gain airtime and make her stand out.
