[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I mean, I think it’s crazy that meanness starts that young. we seemed to avoid that in my sons preschool classes, but now he is 5 and in prek and there is one girl he says hi to at drop off who literally ignores him despite talking to other kids. I don’t fault a 5yo for being rude, just more sad to see it starting. [/quote]

Or. The girl is painfully shy and only talks to 2 kids she feels comfortable with. That was my daughter. They’re 5. They’re not rude. 
OP, the worst thing you can do is subliminally suggest that a kid not wanting to play means your daughter needs to fix the situation or even care. [/quote]

She’s not painfully shy- I considered that. We’ve known her for years and she is very outgoing and affectionate. She even hugs me! She is very chatty with other kids at drop off. Then my son says he and she ignores him. He probably annoys her for whatever reason, and like I said, that’s fine - I don’t fault a 5yo for not knowing how to handle the situation and I don’t fault my 5yo for not knowing to take a hint (though I coach him gently.) just sad to see it play out because it’s damaging to self worth.
