A Common Belief that Blocks Friendship
Ep. 50 - Kids Ask Dr. Friendtastic: Beyond the Magnet Myth of Friendship DISCUSSION QUESTIONS: - What is the Magnet Myth of Friendship? Why is the Magnet Myth NOT true? - How are friends different from fans? - Why does bragging not help you make friends? (Hint: How are other kids likely to react?) - How might worrying about not being “good enough” get in the way of making friends? - Dr. Friendtastic says to “focus on being interested rather than interesting.” What do you think that means? How could you show someone that you are interested in them? Would YOUR KID like to be featured on the podcast? SUBMIT A QUESTION TO DR. FRIENDTASTIC at https://DrFriendtastic.com/submit. (Obviously, this is not psychotherapy, and it’s not for emergency situations.) For an easy-to-read TRANSCRIPT, go to: https://DrFriendtastic.com/podcast/ Like the podcast?
