[QUOTE="flutterbee, post: 178587"] Like others have said, Duckie doesn't have to be friends or play with A. If this means that you and J only get together without kids, then that may be how it has to be for now. If J is your bff, I would hope that she shows some compassion and understanding and keeps a better eye on things when the girls are together. Like others also, I have noticed this behavior with girls. I have not noticed it with my son. He did have a bully in the 7th grade on the bus and he did not want me to interfere. He ignored him and utilized a punching bag in the basement about every afternoon after school. This bully is now a friend of Devon's and was at the house the day Devon got into the car accident. When my mom and I were driving out to the scene, I looked in my rearview mirror and he was following us. He wanted to make sure Devon was ok. At Duckies age you can start teaching what is appropriate and to treat others as you want to be treated and if others treat you this way they are not really a friend, but it's still hard for them to grasp....especially when A is a friend one minute and a bully the next. They are very much in the moment. If it were my child - and I have been there - I would remove her from the situation by either only getting together with your friend without kids or by always being there if the kids are together (don't send Duckie with J unless you go to). Sadly, I remember girls doing this when I was young, but we were older. 6th grade. It started happening with Wynter in the second. It's horrible and it really does hurt. [/QUOTE]
