[quote=Anonymous]I used to think mean girls and mean boys learned that behavior from parents and older siblings, until I had a mean kid of my own. I honestly don't know where it comes from. Our older child is the opposite of a mean kid, more apt to be targeted by mean kids if anything. But the younger one is so different from the rest of us -- loves creating drama, picks on people, constantly tries to be the center of attention, and somehow wields social power. Sometimes there is no explanation for it. Not all of us parents of mean kids are secretly encouraging it. Some of us really try to model better behavior and tamp down the socially manipulative behavior.[/quote]
