[quote=Anonymous]OP, I know where you're coming from - we're in the same situation here too. My daughter has an on-again, off-again friend who is quite manipulative. This "friend" can be mean as a snake one day, and super-sweet the next. As a mom, it's horrible to watch, but I've decided to say my peace and then try to butt out. When DD tells me how fun and nice this girl is, I asked her to please be careful because she's been burned by her before. I told her that she can be friends with whomever she likes, but she needs to be very wary with this particular girl and not be surprised if she turns on DD again. I feel like I've said what I needed to, but the rest is unfortunately up to her and it may take some more painful experiences for her to understand that a true friend doesn't treat her like that. Girls can be brutal and it's so difficult watching DD start to navigate this world, but I guess the most I can do is just be there for her when things implode. [/quote]
