[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]If it isn't clothes, what generally starts the bullying? [/quote] PP whose kid got picked on for ridiculous stuff. Her 5th grade classmates decided they didn't like her choice in TV (we don't watch much - she keeps busy with lots of other stuff). I remember she came home annoyed she got made fun of for not watching Sponge Bob. That said, DD has a prickly personality. I'm sure she bothers other kids, which is something we work on. For her to get made fun of doesn't surprise me, even though it's hard. We talked about the fact that if she controlled her negative reactions to [i]just about everything[/i] more often, the teasing would probably happen less. A couple years later it's gotten better. It is also true that she learned to stay away from the kids who tease kids on ridiculous grounds.[/quote]
