I have expressed concerns before about dd and her best friend (bf has bitten dd a couple of times bad language etc). I have tried to encourage dd to play with others at nursery (with moderate sucess). On friday dd went to nursery (having had hair cut the day before) and bf said her hair looks "disgusting". At the weekend dd was very rude and badly behaved, refusing to do as she was told, answering back and at one point punched me. I feel very strongly that she is picking up this behaviour from this other girl (who has bitten and hit other members of the class), but don't know what to do about it.
This evening dd came into the kitchen and showed me bite marks which she claimed bf did at nursery this pm. I have been at work all day but the nanny didn't mention anything about this (and the teachers are v. good about noticing and dealing with these things) plus they looked very (and I mean very) fresh. I asked her about what happened and she said she didn't want to say. I then confronted her and asked if it was true and she said no she did it herself (a few minutes before) but again wouldn't say hy but then wanted to go to bed so..
She is now tucked up in bed but I don't know what to make of it all. Any ideas?
