  Case: Girl Drama
I have five girls in my after care program that can't seem to get along. I have split them into different groups and they always seem to mess with each other. All the girls have been talked to by the principal about bullying and their parents were involved but they continue to bother each other and say rude comments. I don't know what to do next.
Solution: (Rates are posted for this solution!)
Instead of separating them, i would put them all together and figure out what the problem is. Have them talk it out like human beings. Let them know being mean won't be tolerated. Also try to use positive praise. Praise the students who are kind to one another. Make it "cool".

Comments: Having all the girls in the group together will make them defensive and not willing to be honest. They should be spoken to separately to find the root of the problem.

Comments: I think is a good idea to put them together, but not at the same time. I think two at a time and mix them up to find the what pairs work and solve the pairs they do not work.
