[quote=Anonymous]It’s definitely not too young for this kind of behavior. I’ve seen it too—first with my son’s group of friends at that age and now with my DD’s. Today after school I volunteered to help with an activity for an after-school club for 4th and 5th graders (including my DD). Two of the girls were being incredibly obnoxious—mean girl type behavior, social aggression and manipulation. I stepped in at one point to ask if there was a problem. The girl who was trying to exclude others reiterated the rude comments she had just made, as if she was completely justified in doing it (“oh, well I was just saying that she can’t be in our group because..”). I told her she was being rude and to try to be kinder to others. I got the impression that she wasn’t often corrected. Oh well. [/quote]
