[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]a few spring/summer birthdays per class. [b]Pretty much without fail the kids who are generally disliked or barely tolerated are always the youngest, though. [/b][/quote] I have no dog in this fight because my kids all went to school as scheduled but I have noticed this is true. The youngest girls like babyish things or just arent as socially attuned as the older girls and the youngest boys are smaller, less athletic, and less mature about winning/losing/teasing.[/quote] I have a rising 1st grader. She absolutely knew who the youngest girl is (Aug birthday) - and not in a good way. [/quote] When I taught, boys tolerated the youngest boys but did not seek out their company. Girls openly ostracized the youngest girls.[/quote] Agree that this is often the dynamic. [/quote]
