[QUOTE="BusynMember, post: 359793, member: 1550"] I don't think the behavior is typical, but I can't see her having a disability or childhood disorder either. As long as she can control herself and doesn't rage when you discipline her, you can probably reign her in. I always made my kids apologize to the child in person. In kindergarten, it is common for kids to be drawn to very attractive, outgoing little ones and to vie for their friendship. When they get older though kids are more picky about who they like to hang with and why. It's good that you want to get a handle on it early. (I've raised five kids to fourteen so far and have seen this sort of pattern). I agree that "catching her being good" is better than negativity. If she shows empathy, praise her! Within my five child pack, some have more natural empathy than others. My oldest girl is very caring while my oldest son can be kind of cold at times. Now my youngest daughter is Miss Popularity and very kind, BUT she can turn into a Mean Girl too at times!!! I think they all can. It's a matter of degree...some will post nasty stuff on the internet and really try to destroy another child. My child would never go that far, but she's not above excluding somebody for a while. It's personality differences too. Good luck! [/QUOTE]
