[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]If your kid is ‘popular’ at school and with other kids, what do you think makes them popular? What are their personality traits like? What can attribute their popularity to? What characteristics about your kid do you think make them attract other kids easily?[/quote] My kid is smart, funny, friendly and something I think is important that I'm not - easy-going. She doesn't get all bent out of shape at a slight. If someone's mean to her, she doesn't cry and feel her life is over and she was humiliated, she says "wow, you're not usually so mean; are you okay?!" She intrinsically believes it's THAT person's problem if they're mean. She's also good at defusing a tense or embarrassing situation. If everyone is standing around and one kid asks another "Why are your pants so short? I can see the tops of your socks!" my DD will say "Look what I can do to my pants" and yank the waistband up high or something to get kids laughing and focused on her. [/quote]
