How do I teach my grade-schooler not to act so cliquish? - BabyCenter
Description
Excerpted from the website:
- You're right to be concerned about cliquish behavior. This is an important time for grade-schoolers to learn about friendships, how to respect others, and how not to hurt others' feelings. While it may strike you as cliquish, though, keep in mind that "group friendships" are normal at this age. Just as you do, your child forms circles of friends (which may rotate over time as his interests and social opportunities change) and prefers the company of some children to others. It's also important for him to have a "best friend," even if it means that he and his buddy occasionally end up excluding a third child.
