[quote=Anonymous]I'm not sure about how to handle any specific situation, however... Although I was always a quite shy, maybe "needy" of friendships (or so I thought), my parents always said -- even out of context sometimes -- You deserve to be treated politely and with respect. No matter what. You never have to be friends with anyone who doesn't treat you this way. You are so great, and we love you!!! And if someone is really, really mean and will not stop, you do what you have to do - if you kick 'em, we won't punish you! (I only kicked once as a kindergartener -- I have to say, it solved the problem right then and there). You know, that sort of thing. Getting picked or snarked on wasn't a recurring problem (though it happens to everyone occasionally, hopefully rarely). Sometimes the mean kids even wanted to be my friends, go figure. Teachers usually sat them next to me; I guess they figured I could handle myself.[/quote]
