[quote=Anonymous]DD is in 6th grade and it’s just a brutal year. There has been so much change among her friend group, and to be honest, these girls are just so mean to one another. They are competitive, catty, manipulative, gossipy, and plain old mean spirited.

DD has had one best friend since elementary even though they are part of a larger group of girls from our neighborhood. Since winter break, her best friend has started ignoring her completely at school and has befriended a different girl who my DD says doesn’t like her. But her best friend still texts her (my DD) non-stop to complain about the new friend and still wants to be friends with my DD just not in public.

Sometimes I listen to these girls talk and they treat each other so horribly I just don’t get it. I am trying to work with my DD on being kind to everyone (even if you don’t want to be friends) but it’s hard when she sees and experiences such different behavior from others.

Anyone have advice for how to help your child get through this phase?[/quote]
