As the nursery rhyme goes, "Sugar and spice and everything nice -- that’s what little girls are made of." But what happens when little girls turn into big bullies? Dr. Phil examines why young girls are becoming cruel, mean and bossy, and he has help from the co-stars of Mean Girls 2, Maiara Walsh and Meaghan Martin. First up, Sheila says her daughter, Kayla, threatens other kids at school, steals their lunch and punches them -- and she’s only 9! But little Kayla says her 11-year-old sister, Haley, is the real bully. Find out why, and learn what’s behind the sisters’ mean girl attitudes. Plus, were Maiara and Meaghan ever bullied as kids? The actresses reveal painful playground memories and share tips to help young ladies empower themselves. And, Dr. Phil explains what parents can do when their daughter feels excluded by the popular girls at school.
