[quote=Anonymous]OP this is a tough time for sure. I did not sugar coat it with my daughter. I told her to expect mean girls, and when petty behaviors came up I didn't make a big deal, but told her it was them not her, and how to remove herself from the drama - I always told her it's not worth it - move on - and you are awesome. It worked. I never once gave her mechanisms to "deal" or confront mean girl situations. I just didn't believe head on confrontation works. The less available you are to mean girls the more they want you (if they want you at all). They always came back to her and ultimately she chose not to hang out with them. Many of them matured and through sports and other activities they all were friends by the time they got to later HS. People do grow up and mature thank goodness. [/quote]
