[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP, It's good that you want to address this. I think it's possible that your daughter is indeed a "mean girl." That doesn't mean she's a bad person -- she's just a tween. It's an opportunity for growth. I don't think I would mention the email, as her focus might shift into figuring out who sent it....That's human nature. But I would talk to her about the general topic of bullying, ask her how it might feel to be unpopular or teased, ask what's happening at her own school, etc. Maybe watch an age-appropriate movie together where a kid a bullied. Your daughter may not have ever had the experience of being the odd kid out so doesn't know how it feels. Good luck. [/quote] PP here. Just saw that your DD is 17. Would definitely act on this.
