I just wanted to say that this article has special meaning to me in particular. My daughter really suffered from relational abuse at school for years. It was so very hard for her. She would come home crying and just beg to never have to go back again. I tried several times to get the school to help with the problem, even hiring a counselor to meet with all the girls in the class and teach them team building games and excersizes. It didn't help very much at all, mostly because the mothers were all encouraging their daughters to be this way! About a third of the class's girl population were excluded from activities, birthday parties and sleepovers regularly because they weren't part of the "in" crowd. This year my daughter is 13 and in 7th grade and I had enough. I've pulled her out of school to homeschool her, and we're never going back. I wish that all schools would adopt a policy like this, and early, including the mothers in strategies to help combat these issues and save our daughters from what mine went through. Our local small town school has lost three girls in their tiny class due to this bullying already...and more are following suit.</content><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/1233273947465101795/3173427597081587501/comments/default/7089767163663296531'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/1233273947465101795/3173427597081587501/comments/default/7089767163663296531'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://askmeanmom.blogspot.com/2008/06/mean-girls.html?showComment=1231779780000#c7089767163663296531' title=''/><author><name>The Mommy</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/06323849485591489843</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email></author><thr:in-reply-to xmlns:thr='http://purl.org/syndication/thread/1.0' href='http://askmeanmom.blogspot.com/2008/06/mean-girls.html' ref='tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1233273947465101795.post-3173427597081587501' source='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/1233273947465101795/posts/default/3173427597081587501' type='text/html'/></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1233273947465101795.post-7018412794399293180</id><published>2008-08-01T14:28:00.000-04:00</published><updated>2008-08-01T14:28:00.000-04:00</updated><title type='text'>Same here...thanks for stopping by my site and...I...</title><content type='html'>Same here...thanks for stopping by my site and...I am not far away either, just across the bridge.  I love your site and your thoughts are clear and straight to the point.  I like that. I too am a Mean mom and I will likely order a t-shirt.  All my kids would agree...I say what I mean and I mean what I say.  &lt;BR/&gt;&lt;BR/&gt;It is always nice to make a new friend and I am glad that you think I am funny as well.
