[quote=Anonymous]Middle school is the worst. I believe it’s worse when 6th grade is in middle school. Agree with the others - diversify friend groups, including outside her school. As a PP mentioned, encourage her to look for kind friends. Sometimes, the “cool” kids aren’t the nicest. And I know that some kids who are a little image conscious seek out the cool kids when there are other nice kids who aren’t creating drama. A PP mentioned showing when they give their friends grace. I don’t disagree with that but I do the opposite because my daughter tends to be a pushover. I tell her about the times someone was mean to me and that I either knew they weren’t a good friend or that I put up with it for too long and shouldn’t have. I know there is a line to that, because it could be misinterpreted that friendship drama is normal. But the point that friends may disagree but they don’t make you feel like crap is an important one, IMO. [/quote]
