Since I decided to already go private rather than waiting until the end of the week, I can already start positing things I wouldn't have posted before.Today at church we took our usual bathroom break. Let me tell you, I need it as much as the kids do. So we were standing next to the drinking fountain waiting for the boys...they sure take a long time...when I overheard one little girl talking to the other. I missed the first part but I did catch, "And no body likes you so you." She then moved to be away from the girl she said this to.
Ok I remember the mean girls when I was in 5th and 6th grade but from 6 year olds...(Ok I probably was the mean girl at that age.) The girl that this was said to just took it. She didn't fight back or anything. The thing is, this is not the first time I have heard this at church! The time before though the little girl did end up crying. I think she actually had tears in her eyes once we got back to class today. I have never heard this girl say a mean thing.
Girl #1 Mean Girl
Girl #2 Other Girl
About 2 months ago I heard girl #1 tell girl #2, Stop bragging, no body cares about what you are going to do.
The sad thing is, I knot that Girl #1 has learned this from her mom. Her mom can be so nice and sweet yet she totally has a mean streak to her. (She once made one of those mean girl type comments to me...like in the movie where Regina says, Oh I love it. Then turns and starts ripping on the girls skirt.) I know she has scared me...
I just hope and pray that girl #2 knows that she is loved and that girl #1 someday learns that saying these things is not right.
