[quote=Anonymous]Tey to point out "drama" with girls, just not in an accusatory way. Talk more about the situation and ask questions, how did you feel when the plans were changed? Oh, so you wanted to spend time with just Y, but X invited herself? What could you say next time? Make sure you have a polite but firm response ready to model. Give your children strategies to stand up for their wants and needs, and not become people pleasers. It isn't rude for two friends to go to a movie and not invite another one. In the grand scheme of things this one kid is very small and it seems like she's not toxic or a bad influence, just a manipulator. This is annoying and will eventually get her excluded from activities because now that the kids are in MS, parents for the most part aren't forcing their children's social groups. [/quote]
