12 year old girls -- friend issues
| Thu, 09-13-2007 - 4:21pm |
I guess even though I've been through middle school as a girl...I still don't get it -- girls are "best friends" one day and replaceable within a few days...I tell my daughter to treat everyone respectfully and kindly -- no need for labels of "best friend", etc.

Run out or go to amazon and order queen bees and wannabees.
There is no way for you to handle it really!

You know, I think my very first post to this board was about the exact same thing. Especially the exclusion thing.
I know I talked with her about it a lot and actually got too involved emotionally. I've since then tried not to worry so much and things have actually worked out...6th grade stunk for her, but last year was better and this year is WAY better, so far anyway.
AS others have said, unfortunately this is normal (not right, but normal) behavior and it WILL get better!
Thanks everyone for your advice...it's appreciated.
Oh the "Mama Bear" mentality is so normal!
