[quote=Anonymous]I have a rising 6th grade girl and have noticed the godawful behavior by her peers. It's appalling. Fortunately they do seem to back down if you stand firm. I think some of them are just badly raised, others are doing it to show off in front of their friends. The larger the group, the worse the behavior. I would give one polite request, then abandon your ideas of proper guest/host behavior and start acting like a strict PE teacher. Go right over and unplug the wifi, put the cord in your pocket. Say "My house, my rules" in a cold tone of voice and just do it. Get right on their level and say "No more guns. Do you want to go home?" And have zero fear about calling their parents to pick them up. Do that a few times and they'll get the message, or they won't come over and good riddance. Your son can learn who behaves well enough to be invited.[/quote]
