There's a strange behavior in my daughter’s class (first grade, 7 year olds) -two little girls behaving like as if they're better than the rest of the kids. Little Snobs.
Now, my daughter is very frustrated by that, because one of those two was my daughter's best friend until the other snob shown up.
Her self esteem went very low, so low that she now wants to have everything exactly the same as her former best friend. The clothes, the looks, the room, a brother, she even asked us last night can we change her name!?
Additionally, it seems that my wife and i lost her respect, because we’re not like her ex-friend's parents!?
I spoke to the teacher, she noticed this frustration not only with my daughter, so she wants to fight that snobby behavior...
I spoke to the school's psychologist, but (IMHO) the lady is a lazy idiot.
Please, can you give me some advice how to approach my daughter, what to do, how to show her that the behavior of the two snobs is wrong... Thanks in advance!

I went through this with my daughter at this age and just to let you know it only gets worse as they get older. My daughter cried everynight for a month one time and wanted to change schools because of this girl. The only thing that you can really do is empower your daughter to handle these situations on her own. You can't always be there to fight her battles. Try to encourage her to play with someone else if certain girls are being snotty or mean. It the other girls are really her friends they will come around again especially if they see that she doesnt care about them being around or not. Good luck

Peer pressure is very tough to deal with in school. BOTH for the kids and parents. I would suggest counseling elsewhere. I also would report the idiot for not doing her job properly. It's a shame, kids learn this at home. I'm sure it will pass readily with a few sessions with a counselor. Very impressionable age now. Good Luck

make her stop everything she's doing, and talk about it.
she's going through a phase.......i hung out with a snobby kid in my neighborhood that i really hate right now and now she wants to be friends with me again. not going to happen.
she has to realize that her best friend is deliberately trying to dump her, and she needs a new friend. she should try to hang out with people in her class that she doesn't talk too much, and just get to know them. she'll get better friends......
but on the other hand of the snobby kid, she should just ignore her because obviously that snobby ex-best friend is not acting like a friend. your daughter should quit trying to be just like her, and get new friends.

before you floor her, refer to her. tell her how mean she is being, how different little ones experience, and purely be undemanding. I doubt it's going to artwork, using fact little ones are relatively obdurate, i could understand. If it would not artwork, initiate doing the failings on the checklist under this paragraph. do not do them unexpectedly, until it gets fairly undesirable, yet keep on going until she stops. Throw away all of her outfits (or conceal, donate, do exactly not supply her get entry to to), bypass to Goodwill, and spend like, 40 greenbacks on outfits. enable her positioned on basically those. supply her a hair brush, some scrunchies, and common shampoo/conditioner for her hair, it is it. get rid of her make up. If she needs her costly outfits/makeup decrease back, make her get a job, or earn them decrease back at residing house. get rid of ALL her electronics- cellular telephone, workstation, television, Ipod/music participant if she has one. tell her to come again straight away residing house from college. Cutoff touch together with her bitchy friends. i would not say supply up the sport, using fact, she a minimum of needs one ingredient she enjoys, yet while she would not get extra effective, than by way of all skill do, and if all that would not artwork, residing house college. If she starts off to get extra effective, slowly supply her decrease back her freedom, yet warn her that if she is going decrease back, so do you. i understand how vicious college females may well be, enormously the favored ones, and that i understand the wear they could do to their friends. considered one of my ideal friends tried suicide using fact of them, and, fairly, I have not have been given any sympathy for them. i understand she's your daughter and you adore her, yet you heavily could do the ideal for her and get her to alter. keep in mind, you are the mummy, not her, and if the daddy would not like it, keep in mind who she lives with. *EDIT*- Wait, she's sixteen and has a automobile? then you definately ask your self why she's so spoiled! information flash, mom, you are the single Spoiling her, and inflicting her attitude. Make the motor vehicle the 1st ingredient you get rid of, tell her to trip the bus if she needs to bypass someplace, which, she should not be doing if she's grounded. Ugh, i hate little ones like this. per risk your daughter IS variety at heart, yet in the present day, no it is user-friendly to confirm that. She's probably mean to the youngsters in HER little "clique" too.
