[quote=Anonymous][i][b]Rosalind Wiseman,[/b] for example, runs a nonprofit organization called the Empower Program, with classes in 60 schools. She [b]teaches at the National Cathedral School, a private school in Washington for daughters of the rich, the powerful and the political. One class is devoted to learning how to apologize. [/b](A few daddies and mommies could take or teach that one.)

The idea is to get the popular girls to become more aware of their "relational aggression" and say "I'm sorry," even if they really aren't. ("I shouldn't have called you a fat, ugly slut with a red, splotchy complexion. You're merely plump and flirty with acne.") What we have here is the creation of just what we need, a whole new class of victims, the object of the popular girl's viciousness. 
[b]The title of Rosalind Wiseman's forthcoming book, "Queen Bees and Wannabees: Helping Your Daughter Survive Cliques, Gossip, Boyfriends and Other Realities of Adolescence," gives you the flavor of her themes.[/b] [/i][/quote]
