Kindergarten issues

This is a little one, but worth jotting down since I know I won't remember this in the long run. This week Anya had her first "I don't want to go to school" tantrum, which was closely followed by her first time being dropped off after missing the bus.

This tantrum happened because of her friend Olivia. Olivia sits at Anya's table and they usually are great friends. This week, they had silly hat day because they were working ont he letter "h". Anya's hat was decorated with pompoms and pipe cleaners. At the end of the day, Anya was in her "bus room" which is shared with the bus that Olivia rides. According to Anya, Olivia deliberately pulled some of the decorations off of Anya's hat which hurt Anya's feelings so she told the teacher.

This prompted Anya to tell the teacher on her, so Olivia told her she wouldn't be her friend anymore. What I don't get is why Anya had no problem being friends with someone who broke her hat, but Olivia didn't want to be friends after being told on. I suppose it just shows how forgiving Anya is.
