[quote=Anonymous]DD has always had a lot of friends. Some of her friends are getting bratty and bossy. My DD's reaction to this is to be hurt and snub them. She takes it very seriously and thinks they are mad at her if they say something mean or obnoxious. She will refuse to speak with them or glare at them for days/weeks. I am glad that she is not joining in their behavior. However, I'm worried that she's going to develop her own mean behavior accidentally by snubbing and glaring. I've tried to tell her to just ignore it, leave the situation, and be polite to them in the future. At this age, kids learn bully behavior by getting off on the upset reaction they get from whoever they try it on. I don't want her to isolate herself and become a target. [/quote]
