Mean girl

At dinner tonight, Gillian told us about school. "It was Dashiel's party. We had pizza and cup-a-cakes." Daddy said "And next week it is Grace's birthday." Gilly said "Grace is new. And she doesn't like Dorlisa. Dorlisa didn't look pretty today. You know why? She was wearing orange. And Grace doesn't like orange. Dorlisa is ugly." And I cringed. Did my little girl just say that her best friend is ugly because some other girl didn't like the color she was wearing?

We explained to her that calling people names hurts their feelings and we don't want to hurt our friends.
