[quote=Anonymous]The Girl Scout moms and most of the girls involved are a nasty clique at my kids’ school (I have 2 boys so not directly involved). They’re not super pretty or successful/wealthy either. It’s a lot of Cookie Monster pajama pants and bike shorts and big tees. Definitely not a snob thing but they just have no time of day for anyone else and seem to barely tolerate each other.

I do think the mean behavior and complex social dynamics starts earlier with girls. I’m sure it was there before but I noticed it a lot in 3rd grade. I volunteered a few times in my one kid’s classroom and at school and could tell almost immediately which girls were usually excluded. They were all the nice, well-behaved girls, who were on grade level (not advanced or behind/remedial), and seemed a touch immature or maybe naive. Like they’d go home and want to play with dolls, or want to actually play on the playground vs. the more socially advanced girls who talk and show off gymnastics moves. [/quote]
