All these mean little girls!?

Question

My little cousin is 7 years old, and my neighbor. All these other mean litltle girls in my neighborhood are ganging up on her. It was so bad last night that she came to me door crying. I let her sleepover at my house. And I had a talk with the little girls. But they are doing it again today. How do I stop them, this is a growing issue.

Answer 1

Best thing to do is be there to listen to your cousin and let kids work it out on their own. At this age stuff like this could be horrible one week and in the next week or two they will be best buddies.  Friendships are fickle at that age.  If they start physically trying to harm her then it's time to call the other kids parents and tell them what is going on and that it needs to stop.

It could be time as well to find her some activities and other kids to play with this summer so she can develop friendships with girls her age that have similar interests and who don't treat her so mean.  Unfortunately though, kids can be cruel.

Answer 2

Talk to their parents.

Answer 3

Answer 4

talk to their parents,if that dpes not work then try telling someone that is bigger than their parents

Answer 5

Talk to their mothers about it, if it doesn't stop then ignore them. They just want attention...

Answer 6

Speak to their parents - tread carefully and don't be aggressive. Poor chicken.

Answer 7

Speak to those girls parents. No one should be treated like dirt. They should be punished. If it continues I would advise to call their parents and tell them if they don't discipline their children that the police might have to get involved.

Answer 8

Leave them alone.  You are making it worse on your niece by butting in.  Little girls can be "catty" and if they find someone with a weakness they will "prey" upon that person.  The best advice is to tell your niece to stay away from them and to ignore them when they start to taunt her.  The reason they are doing it is to MAKE her do exactly what she is doing.  Once she stops responding to them they will get bored and stop.  You butting would be like adding fuel to the fire...you will causing the torment to keep up by interfereing.

Answer 9

I'd talk to those other little girls parents.  Don't let your cousin play with them.  Tell her that they have nothing better to do than bother nice people because they wish they were nice themselves.

Answer 10

This bullying is unbelievable.  Can your family member call the school and tell them about it?

Answer 11

First question WHERE ARE THE PARENTS?  I love how so many teenagers are asking questions on here and the parents seem to be on an other planet?  You should get both your cousin's and the mean girls parents involved.  Otherwise just walk out their pick the little mean girls up by their pony tales and tell them to be your cousins "best friend" or you'll hold them down and write "loser" on their foreheads in permanent ink.

Answer 12

call juvenile

ps. if you dont know that is a kids jail

Answer 13

I think that speaking to the girls won't help- what you need to do is organise an activity, or a camp or picnic or something where you can get them all together, and divert their attention if they start to bully her. They may not do it with you there, and this will mean your cousin can start to make friends with them, and they'll have to be nice back.
