The Euken's ... Life as we know it!

boiling

Literally ... my blood is still boiling.

Situation: student A. opened her locker and hit student B. in the arm and I just happened to be in the hallway to hear what happened.

A: "Sorry."

B: "Sorry doesn't cut it." said in the tone that a hormonal 16 year old would say to someone who stole her boyfriend

I lost it ..... let's just say it wasn't pretty.

Then during rest time student A. came up to me and asked what "sorry doesn't cut it" meant.

How do 5/6 year old girls get this mean?????

If you have solutions to dealing with this, please let me know.

You should bring your bull horn :)

Did you call her parents? That worked for my hormonal, actual 16-year-olds.

Sometimes these kids get the wrong lesson in conflict management at home!

Frustrating that "mean girls" start being mean so young. :(

Glad I never had any mean girls at my house!!! Not to say that we didn't encounter mean girls, they just were not allowed at the White House.
