[quote=Anonymous]I’m seeing early stages of this with second graders (on the cusp of turning 8). As much as I want to give little kids grace to learn what is and is not acceptable behavior, as a mom, I feel it is my responsibility to not put my kids in scenarios where they are exposed to this behavior that may eventually turn into bullying. I blame the parents and also don’t blame them at the same time. Teaching kids norms of social behavior, the importance of kindness, and consistently correcting them is a lot of work. And the parents probably don’t even realize that their kids have developed these “snobby” behaviors until it’s too late because in the past, this was not normal behavior at this age. [/quote]
