[quote=Anonymous]I moved in both 5th and 8th grade. Honestly, 5th was much worse than 8th. Kids at 10 and 11 are at the height of mean girl behavior and had been together since kindergarten. It was really bad. By 8th kids were a bit more mature and we're more settled into activities as their identity and social sphere. That said, I was pretty hurt when I was left out off all of the graduation stuff as a senior in high school because I was the "new" kid who had only been in the grade since 8th instead of kindergarten. I didn't get any awards, which went to peers with similar and lesser credentials. I was left out of the senior class slide show, etc. Lots of little slights that I didn't belong. It hurt. [/quote]
