[quote=Anonymous]Normal, but rude. Consistently reinforce the inappropriateness of this behavior. Just because it’s normal doesn’t mean it’s appropriate. Nothing like a good old fashioned “if you can’t say anything nice…” and teach her how to find something to compliment even if she doesn’t like something over all - like the color of something or the way one part looks. There’s a 10 year old like this in my daughter’s class. She’s said things that range from rude to downright mean to pretty much all the other girls in her grade and even some parents. It was brushed off at 8 and 9, but the kids and parents are now very wary of including her in things. [/quote]
