But also be careful. You sound so certain of your knowledge of the situation. I've been in the other side with a kid who pushed another kid. Do you know what happened before my daughter snapped? She was name called over multiple weeks. She was told she wasn't good enough to stick with the friend group and if she wanted to stay at the lunch table she needed to change her hair, clothes, start wearing makeup, stop being childish. My daughter reported some of these things to me and I eventually overheard some of it. The thing that made my daughter push the other girl was when she stooped to making fun of another "friend" from their childhood group who has significant disabilities. And then she was shamed out of the group. For a while she did struggle with making friends but eventually has started to find some more accepting kids.

So yes, I'm awkward when I see the other mom and avoid her. She knows about the pushing but I have a strong feeling she only knows a small fraction of the story.[/quote]
