[QUOTE="InsaneCdn, post: 455052, member: 11791"] Its not just the difficult child kids. Our almost-easy child gets it too - she refuses to fit in with the "in" crowd, so they plaster the whole school with negativity about her, and turn her into a pariah. The school has no power over these kids - just like a neighborhood. In this case, its over half the girls in the upper grades - too big a group for teachers to track what's going on, and too much $$ involved - not exactly a group of parents you'd want to stand up to either. She wouldn't be a target if she wasn't exceptional... but that is who she is... exceptionally kind (including to the bullies - on an as-needed basis only), exceptionally hard working, and exceptionally successful - just NOT at all "popular". She's more mature than some of these kids' mothers - which of course doesn't help either! The challenge lies in knowing how to help them deal with it, and how and when to step in... and what to do when none of this works. [/QUOTE]
