I don't understand why they are so nasty to each other

[MRSjayy]

I understand teenage girls don't always like each other they have their own groups etc etc but why the hell do they think it is ok to say nasty things , DD2 has never been friends with 2 particular girls they were in primary together they have always been horrible to her
but yesterday she got really upset about something they had said , she went into a classroom to get something and these girls laughed and said god look at the state of her and it was all whisperering giggiling till dd left , dd tried to laugh it off about them being immature but I could see she was pretty upset by it why can't kids leave each other alone

Tell her that these girls must be very insecure or unhappy if they feel the need to try to make other people feel small. They won't have felt good about themselves afterwards.

The dynamic at school will change after the summer when they're all in different classes and making plans for when they leave. Not much longer to go for your DD now.

yes she knows that they are just being mean I have always been the if you have nothing nice to say dont say anything at all , she is just fed up of it she never really speaks to them and I dont even think she is in many of their classes they just bitch and are just nasty sigh thanks for replying you always seem to come onto my threads when i am having a moan

I just think it must be so difficult to be a teenage girl these days....

"she never really speaks to them" - extra annoying for her.

It sounds like they envy something about your DD. They probably feel inferior to her in some way - she's getting on with things without them - they feel the need to try to bring her down to her level by hoping to involve her in a nasty exchange.

They're probably mean to other girls too.

Very tiresome.

yes it is tiresome she is really laid back usually she probably annoys them because she is a bit laid back also there is a boy who is friends with dd and her friends but is somebody in the other groups boyfriend IYSWIM it is all so dramatic when you think about it

yes they are nasty to other girls too,

Get the book - how to handle bullies teasers and other meanies.
This book is for teenagers to read. It simply brakes down why kids act this way. It then gives strategies to use.
It's good and will help.
Girls are particularly awful. I just wish we were all born with a skin that is not affected by nastiness. Those that are , are particularly lucky.
