Q:
How do I know if my daughter is being bullied or if it is simple childhood conflict that needs to work itself out?
My daughter has had issues with one of the girls in her class being mean to her. She solved this issue by befriending the 3rd girl in the class, now she is telling me that the girl is nice to her when the teacher is there but in the bathroom she pulls the 3rd girl aside and says things like 'remember we are not friends with ___' or 'we are not going to play with ___ at recess'. Is this bullying and should I be concerned or is it simply a way of young kids working out a pecking order, etc? Thanks for your help!

I think the girl is just being controlling and telling her who she can and can't hang out with but I say just keep an eye out for anything else because it could get worse, not saying it will just saying it might.
