[quote=Anonymous]This is such a hard time- 8th grade is particularly tough. When my DD was this age, my advice was to kill ‘em with kindness. Continue interacting with the friend group but be particularly nice to the girl causing problems, especially in front of the others. Not in a fake or mean way, just be polite, don’t talk negatively about the other person and find ways to compliment her in front of the group. If your DD is being nice, it will only reflect poorly on Larla is she continues to be rude. Remind your DD that in life, there are always going to be people who are rude and immature, and that sometime you have to suck it up, be the bigger person and just be kind. If she tries this and Larla continues with the BS, then time for your DD to move on. Luckily, friend groups shift around a LOT between 8th and 9th grade. [/quote]
