For a TRANSCRIPT go to: https://DrFriendtastic.com/podcast/ DISCUSSION QUESTIONS - Describe a time when someone crossed a boundary of your. Why do you think they did that? How did you handle it? - Dr. Friendtastic said, “Good boundaries can save friendships.” What does that mean?

How do you think your friends would react if you said, ““I’ve asked you twice to stop, but you keep doing that. What’s going on?” Why might it be a good idea to ask “What’s going on?” rather than just yelling at them? (Hint: how is your friend likely to respond to those comments? - If a friend crosses your boundaries, does that mean the friendship has to end? What oculd you do instead?
