In the latest issue of "Daughters: For Parents of Girls," author
Rosalind
Wiseman tells parents and teachers that they don't have to cave in to
cliquish cruelty in the classroom. Wiseman's best-selling book "Queen
Bees and Wannabes: Helping Your Daughter Survive Cliques, Gossip,
Boyfriends & Other Realities of Adolescence" (Crown, 2002), gained wide
media attention last winter when the New York Times magazine featured
her work in a cover story on "mean girls." Wiseman argues that cliques
are no worse today than ever, but nevertheless, it's time adults did
something about them. The new September/October issue of
"Daughters" also has articles on living with stepparents, online
plagiarism,
what the arts can do for girls' self esteem. Order "Daughters"
