[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I think some people just like to be competitive socially. I don't think it's deeper than that. They are told that others are doing this and they should do the same. Those happens with adults as well. I currently can't stand a coworker who makes every conversation a competition or always has to have a scapegoat to complain about. Just really high narcissistic traits. I think she was just raised this way to complain about others and try to establish a pecking order with people. It's taken me decades to stop wondering why people do this and to just never be close to them to begin with. Find stupid ways to puff them up and work around them. [/quote] Adults who trash talk borishly might be competitive but loads more kids than adults trash talk. The difference in numbers is the kids who are mostly trying to figure themselves out.[/quote]
