[quote=Anonymous]I have a DD in 4th grade. Based on my experience, I can tell you there are plenty of cliques and mean girls behaviors as early as 1st grade. Lame is definitely in their vocabulary. Our 4th grade still has lots of all-class coed bday parties. Unless she has already heard from her friends, I don't tell my daughter what the scheduled activity is -- I just ask her if she does or does not want to go to kid X's birthday party. That way, it's about whether she cares for the kid, not the activity. I definitely urge that she attend a new kid's party, or socially awkward kid. [/quote]
