[quote=Anonymous]I would redefine this. You daughter being silent is exhibiting mean girl behavior. Own this and get her to own this. When I was growing up my mom said if I stood silent I was just as guilty. I think this is important to digest because it feels less icky to blame it on someone else, sort of makes your daughter a victim ie "she is standing silent while someone else is being mean"--no she is being mean too by being silent. She also gets a payoff by being the special snowflake that the "mean girl" likes. It is all equally bad. I would have a heart to heart on what it means to be nice and if you have to wonder about it, you are not being nice and being a jerk is no way to live successfully.[/quote]
