[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]A lot of this is not "mean girl" behavior, it is just behavior and something to be taught is hurtful. It doesn't need to be pathologized, FFS. Excluding/power/what happens when I say x are all normal developmental phases. It doesn't mean they should not be taught from. But adults deeming 3 and 4 year old children as "mean girls" is ridiculous and inappropriate. It is hard when our children get their feelings hurt. I know. I have seen this far more with my son and his male peers than my daughter. But the kids are not being "mean" or bullies, they are being children. [/quote] I whole heartedly agree.[/quote] Disagree. The little girl in my daughter’s class is actively mean. Agree that it’s the adults’ job to guide and teach her and not label her as permanently mean because she’s only 3. But she’s mean.[/quote] Boys can be mean too. The whole concept of "mean girl" is misogynistic in so many ways.[/quote]
