[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]They learn this sort of behavior from their "involved parents". The involved parents were the ones behaving this way in middle and high school and teaching their children this behavior because they still act this way. Maybe your child needs new friends. I would encourage her to join other activities and make new friends through those.[/quote] I’m 30 so I’m sure things have changed but, growing up, there were definitely social hierarchies and most parents/moms were not involved at all in our social lives. I tend to believe, even now, cliques would form even in the absence of “mean moms” and that the cutthroat social environment at this age has more to do with the complex experience of growing up and moving from childhood to adolescence.
