[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It's a new form of bullying. The worst part is it's on DD's team, outside of school. Coach has been made aware but it's so subtle yet maddening. DD has moments of sadness about it. She felt used as she did a lot for the group (getting them more followers on Instagram as she has a channel with a big following ) prior to the shunning. [/quote]

It's hardly new.  Happened to me in 7th grade in 1984.  Obviously not with the text messages and such, but my former tight group of BFFs started ignoring me in school and stopped answering my calls, and when they did call it was with one person on 3-way on mute listening in while the other one tricked me into saying bad stuff about her.  Good times.  [/quote]

This happened to me the first month of HS with my middle school friends in 1994! Minus the technology of course. A boy that I made friends with over the summer was nice to me, because we were, you know, friends and one of the leaders of the group had a huge crush on him and apparently I stood in the way. 14 year old me was SO clueless about it, especially since the boy and I were only friends, he was a new neighbor! It worked out great though because it led me to the group of friends that I grew throughout HS with and 2 of them are best friends to this day.

Its not new but it is still hard. Sorry :([/quote]
