[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Middle schoolers say thoughtless things to get laughs from peers. All the time. Even the nice ones. There's no reason for this kid to think it would ever get back to the person (the kid would probably be mortified if it did). If it's not something damaging or malicious, it's usually not intentionally hurtful. I do think it's important to signal that it's not cool to talk about people like that, especially when you don't know them, just for attention. Depending on my relationship with the kids that told me about it, I might have casually said something like, "Oh, Ms. So-and-So? She's really nice. That's kind of obnoxious of that girl to say that." And then subject change. [/quote] I think that's a good approach. Sorry, OP for all the other obnoxious responses. I think you had a fair question. Some of the PPs sound like they're still in MS. WTF?[/quote]
