[quote=Anonymous]My daughter is older, but the moms in our group of elementary school kids are pretty good about addressing issues when they arise between kids. One mom was nice enough to tell me that there had been some mean girl stuff at her daughter's birthday party. (directed at my kid.) And I've mentioned to another mom when our daughter's seemed to be having issues getting along. That's how I phrased it - "Jane and Sue seem to be provoking and teasing each other - we might want to keep an eye on that for a bit." I'm a youth coach so I sometimes see dynamics that the parents aren't there to see, so I'll give moms a heads up that their kids seem to be in a rough patch. So I'd invite the kid, but tactfully tell the mom, "hey, do me a favor and help me keep an eye on the boys. They seem to have developed a very rough style of play." If she's paying attention, she'll figure out pretty quickly that the roughness is more one-sided.[/quote]
