[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]This is really eye-opening to me- so many grudge holders. I just don't operate that way. Maybe it's partly from being a teacher, and seeing how much kids change from year to year, but I think you all are being hugely unfair. I would never encourage a friendship with someone who is being awful, but I also think kids change.[/quote] I don’t necessarily hold a grudge but it does make me more observant and guarded about the kid going forward. Our kids are older now but even as things ebbed and flowed, 90% of the girls who were manipulative in ES ended up being that same way all the way through high school. They got better about how they played it but when observing from a distance, their agenda was quite clear. Manipulative is not the same as someone who was just a little rude when the kids were younger. [/quote]
