[quote=Anonymous]The teacher may feel that the comments, while pretty common for that age group, reflect something a little off in your daughter's psychological profile, but since she doesn't have the expertise to really pinpoint issues, she just wants to brinh the behavioral problems to your attention. Possibly your kid has ADHD, or mild autism, or something along those lines. I say this as a parent of teens and young adults, one of whom has ADHD/ASD, and who has seen my fair share of kids with autism or ADHD behave like this. NOT TO SAY THAT YOUR KID HAS A DIAGNOSIS!!! But your description of mental rigidity, etc, kind of rings a bell here. The best thing for you to do is talk to your kid regularly about keeping mean remarks in her head and reminding her what constitutes a "mean" remark. [/quote]
