[quote=Anonymous]Hosted a birthday party for our 9 year old this weekend. Mix of 3rd and 4th grade girls. Some of these kids are so snotty. Eyerolls, little petulant comments to DH and I (so not just to their own parents but to a friends' parents). Lots of snotty behavior towards each other too, one-upping, getting really condescending and rude at times. Is this normal? I personally found it kind of shocking to have these kids, most of whom are only 8 or 9, just being openly rude towards us for no reason, while being hosted in our house. It was stuff like DH asking a girl if she wanted pepperoni pizza or cheese and her staring at him open mouthed and then saying "duh, it should be obvious." We just let it go but... what? I'd be so embarrassed if my kid was doing this at someone else's house. I hope she isn't! What are other people seeing? Is this behavior typical or did we just have a really rude group of girls here yesterday?[/quote]
