There was a bunch of cliquey girl behavior in Franny's class last year. For the most part, Franny stayed outside of it as she tends to pull away from kids who are inconsistent in their affection. But there were days when she came home with her feelings a bit bruised. And now that she's fairly high in the social rankings I sometimes hear her excluding others. My usual MO is to remind her of how she felt last year.

So yeah, I'd say it's normal girl behavior. I don't police it, but I do try to make Franny aware of how her actions might appear to others.
