[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My son this morning struggled with his backpack in carpool line.  The girl that was the patrol who was supposed to help gave him the biggest mean girl smirk to a friend as he entered the building.  I wanted to roll down my window and say STOP...

This is just a rant but I just don't understand why kids feel the need to be mean.

Why do you think it was a mean girl smirk and not a "why do these little kids have to carry so much stuff in their giant bookbags" grimace? Or a "we're almost through!" half-smile. Or  an "I am so worried about the math test I have to take as soon as I get inside of the building" stress smile?[/b]

Do you have experience with the girl where she treats kids badly? Is this because you think she should have been doing something other than she was, and her smile sent you over the edge?[/quote]

Such BS - yes, let’s second guess our ‘read’ of a 5th grader because that is ‘oh so complicated’ (really?) and just curl up into a little ball of self doubt and do nothing. Have you ever thought of becoming an adult?[/quote]
