[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My friend and I were making rude comments about our JV soccer coach when we were in high school in the bathroom and then she walked out of the stall and said “you need to be careful who you speak about in public like that.” She said it super calmly and never mentioned it again. As an adult now, I think that was a good response. Still remains one of the most embarrassing moments of my life to this day.

I too agree that the reaction depends on the kid.  Kids (in this case girls) who would continue to trash talk even after being confronted are so far down the mean girl line that not only are they hopelessly on track to be nasty women but also most people likely already know them to be snots.  The kid who is being two faced or going along with nasty comments so-called popular girls s much more likely to be embarrassed about being caught and judged and will certainly be less likely to do it again.  THOSE are the kids that can and will learn a lesson.  And you don’t have to make a production to do that - just a simple knowing look would be enough for a kid who knows better but isn’t acting properly. [/quote]
