Preschool = High school

I worked at Parker's preschool this morning and it's amazing how early some of the behaviors with kids start.

For example...

There are already clicks. 2 girls and one boy hang out together constantly and say things like, "No more room here!" to other kids.

Two girls walked hand and in hand making snide comments about the other girls whispering and laughing as they were doing it.

Parker wanted to sit next to this one girl, but she wanted to sit next to this other girl. They kept moving and Parker kept following. I told him she wanted to sit next to someone else. Parker said, "But there's room for me too," as the girls made sure there wasn't. So mean.

A dad worked today and some of the girls were literally flirting with him to get his attention. It was bizarre. Or perhaps not.

I thought I saw the future a bit with Elizabeth and it wasn't pretty.
