[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It doesn't start in kindergarten. Mean girl behavior, as in the bullying kind, doesn't really emerge until middle school. There are incidents where kids are are unkind to each other in younger years but that's more just fumbling and immaturity. It's not systemic and deliberate taunting/exclusion etc. [/quote] Exactly, they are still trying to figure out how to exist in society. They're going to mess up and say some things that are viewed as unkind, even if there is no malice behind it. That's why you talk through this behavior when you see it to explain why that may be perceived as unkind even if that wasn't the intent. [/quote]
