[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Oldest 2 boys are probably mean. They exclude other boys and hold weak ones in semi-open disdain. We didn’t teach them to be this way but it came to them naturally. They’re not cruel, though. The funny thing is they’re rewarded for their behavior by the other boys and girls. [/quote] I have a "weak", sensitive son (anxious, not very athletic) and if your son holds him in "semi open disdain" and actively excludes him, that sounds pretty cruel to me.[/quote] Anyone who holds kids in semi-open disdain, actively excludes others, and thinks it makes them more popular isn't actually strong. Strength (socially, physically, whatever) is in using your gifts to help others. Always. But the worst/weakest is a parent who would glory in that and consider it a good thing. The only reason I can believe there are adults like this in the world is that they are so often featured in the news as part of our US government these days. Perhaps PP is one of the "govern the US via reality TV show" types?[/quote]
