[quote=Anonymous]Find a way to get into a situation to observe her with other kids.  Without first-hand observation it is difficult to say.

My daughters complain a lot about various girls.  Here are some of the personality issues that seem to make a girl less popular.

* Talks a lot about boring things.  Very long stories that no one cares about.

* Mean.  Plays one girl off of another.  (You wouldn't see this as a mom-- there are some girls in the neighborhood who I found to be delightful but I heard from multiple sources that they were mean in smaller groups.)

* Doesn't understand the complicated social environment.  My dd and her whole group started speaking badly about someone who had been in their group.  It took me a lot of prying to figure out why and the best I could come up with was that she turned down one of the 'in group' girl's bday party to go to a social function outside the group.

* Bossy.  This can go either way.  Some of the most popular girls are very bossy, but if you're not one of them, you're not allowed to be bossy.
