[quote=Anonymous]First off, OP, I'm so sorry. It is so incredibly hard to watch your kid go through this. My DD just started high school so we've made it through the middle school gauntlet, and there is light on the other side of the tunnel.  It sounds like you're doing the right thing by giving your DD a safe space to be herself, and you're being a great listener.  But I'd also strongly recommend that you block Larla's number from your phone so that the communication via text stops, and then advise your DD to break off IRL communication with her as well. I don't know how feasible this is in a small private school, but to the extent possible, she should move on and make a new friend group, and just get away from this toxic larla and her minions.  The sooner the better.  Friendships ebb and flow a lot in middle school so if there is a silver lining, it's that your DD is getting experience with this early on and will build resilience.  You say that she's confident and social, which is great.  She will build even more confidence by shaking off this group of mean girls and building new friendships. ((((hugs))) to you. [/quote]
