They don't tend to fall out - but tend to form "tribes" from around the age of 7/8, where the sporty kids dominate and become more popular. My boys aren't your typical football-crazy lads. Luckily my eldest has found a couple of like minded friends and they stick together. My youngest chops and changes his buddies.
