[quote=Anonymous]Not sure how to and if I should share my concern about passive aggressive and sometimes blatantly rude comments a girl made to our anxious (in therapy child). The other child is teacher’s pet and mom is a trustee. She will frequently ignore my child when in a group or make sarcastic comments.

School expects kids to figure it out themselves and even if a concern is brought to the teacher, she just supports the other kid. Spouse thinks I should not be an umbrella parent and let our child figure it out while advising when specific issues are brought home so direct behind the scenes.

Specific Comments directed to my child may have abated (not sure yet as not enough time has elapsed since the last one) after I gave the verbiage to my kid to speak up once. Speaking up however, has led to this girl turning the other 2-3 girls against my child so they are now ignoring so there are some tears almost daily due to being left out and being lonely. I don’t have a response to - mom why can’t everyone just be nice?

My kid doesn’t use cuss words or gossip or talk about stuff I wouldn’t expect a 11 yr old to talk about but they do. I am told that not participating in dissing people means one is kiddish. Clearly we are the outliers….as most girls that age that i have met in school or during extracurricular activities are very “mature” and the parents quite “permissive”.  Mean girls…with mean mamas …[/quote]
