To the wise.

Hi mom and dads. I have two kids that are 11 and 9. The 11 year old just moved to a new school. But she told me today that one of the girl is very mean especially towards her. Like sharing candy with others with her being an exception. My daughter tried helping her pick up some books and after she was done, she pushed her away.My daughter thinks she is jealous of her and her new friend’s relationship. They hang out together, eat together, goes to the bathroom together. They do everything together.I don’t want to tell her she needs to befriend her. That is completely out of the question. I don’t want her being friends with someone so toxic.I don’t want to tell her to ignore her either. Toxic positivity doesn’t seem to be a solution most of the time.I told her to ignore her until she does or say something to her. I told her that she is not her friend and you can let her know that.I thought I was a good parent. I don’t think I’m giving her good advices.I know there is someone out there that could suggest what she could do. I just don’t have an answer. I feel so helpless.Thank you for reading this long post. via /r/Parenting https://ift.tt/3z4HDPS
