I was under-the-radar popular in high school, but the majority of those posts sum up my elementary school experience to a tee. Now, looking back as an adult, it's just mind-boggling how willfully blind teachers and school administrators - not to mention parents, the bulk of who would never fathom that their innocent kidlets are capable of such a thing. A news program here in Canada did a special not too long ago about a clique of 5th grade girls and the psychologically abusive tactics they use every day - the parents just honestly had no idea.

as for the willful blindness, there's some discussion below over whether that's actual intent or just harassed and overworked employee syndrome.
Regarding the parents tho...you'd think they'd remember...
