Isabelle did a really nice thing for her. ❤ she treated her like an actual daughter which I loved. She tried to help in her own way and the important thing is Anna really felt better after and it wasnt wrong....just a different approach. :)

In Oregon, the 6th grade is middle school, and most in most states, it's in middle school. Back in my day, it was grade school. Things change fast because 9th grade in the 70s was in junior high, not high school.

I think both the mom and the stepmom are right in their approach, it's about when it's appropriate to apply either one, the default should be the most dignified way of the mom, but if it's costing you your peace of mind because the bullies won't leave you alone then the stepmom way is the way to handle them.

My favorite lines from the movie... The choice... It seems to me you have a choice. You can either pretend to be an adult or you can actually be one. So, sit here in the cold crying by yourself... or... do something about it. Together. Jesus, how many grown-ups, nowadays, need to be reminded of that choice! Only many are not as smart or grown-up as Anna!

Giving jackasses their comeuppance is very satisfying or necessary. However, sometimes learning to ignore people unworthy to be in your life, is important to cultivating inner strength and integrity when far more serious situations occur in adult life, which was what Jackie meant about learning to withstand peer pressure.

"I believe in a crisis you have the opportunity to learn something". "Winning without dignity and grace is not winning". "She has to figure out who she is so she can stand up to peer pressure...so she can steer her own course". There are two different ways to stand up to assert oneself. This is depicted through the step mom's lens and the mothers lens. The mother is trying to raise the daughter one way; and the stepmom has conflicting viewpoints. Very good way to depict relational harassment between the mother and step mother.

Joseph Hernandez! Amen, I say the same thing. Isabel's idea really taught that little schmutz and his pals a lasting lesson. That this girl is a force to be reckoned with so look out. Jackie doesn't have to worry about all those parents calling her about 'snowblowing'. What kid that age goes to their parents and tells them about the new dirty jokes or words in school? No kid that age ever tells their parents about dirty words, jokes, phrases, books, movies, etc that the whole class has seen and heard. The Happy Hooker book got passed around to everybody in my fifth grade class and not even the teacher knew, much less the parents. Jackie can rant and rave until the roof caves in but the fact is Isabel was there to deal with the problem while Jackie couldn't for health reasons.

I have to give credit to Isabelle for helping Anna b/c Anna didn't like her b/c she was a new mom and she wanted her own mom Jackie and Isabelle stepped in and wasn't a mean stepmom as stepmom are known to be evil and stepfather's evil but Isabelle gave Anna advice and she helped her out and then Anna and Isabelle had a realtionship from there. Anna used what Isabelle gave her and you can be adult and tell the truth about this bully and make people see him for what he really is which is a jack ass and Anna did just that. Isabelle had a boy who was with her and the line when she said "You don't believe me he is standing right over there, we laugh our asses off when we talk about you!" There was that boy with Anna and she said it worked it worked and she thanked Isabelle but Jackie (Anna's real mom) wasn't happy about it!

When i was bullied in middle school, (1970s) my parents told me to ignore it, so i did. I TOTALLY ignored it, they just couldn't get a rise out of me and it stopped. HOWEVER i also had full parental permission to hit anyone who hit me first. Being particularly small, (& utterly pokerfaced at all verbal bullying) nobody expected me to physically defend myself. In midle school i was hit two different times by two different kids. I hit them both back immediately and nobody messed with me again.

@@josephhernandez1885 I wouldn't think she blamed Isabelle for her marriage. her husband was seeing other women after they separated as Jackie mentioned in that meeting with the school counselor. I think she just didn't like sharing the burden of looking after the children with another woman who was too young, involved in her work, and inexperienced with kids. she must have just liked dealing with her ex-husband alone more than having a third party to deal with over their personal differences as women.
