Why do you think kids sometimes act in ways that don’t match what they really think or feel? - Why do kids sometimes act differently in different situations or with different people? Why is this NOT the same as being fake? - Dr. Friendtastic says, “Every friendship, if it lasts long enough, is going to hit a rough spot.” What do you think are some good ways to move past a friendship rough spot? - Have you ever had an unreliable friend–someone you felt you couldn’t count on? How did you handle this? - What does it mean to trust a friend? Can you trust a friend who makes a mistake and says or does something unkind? Why or why not? *** You might also like these podcast episodes: Ep. 24 - Olivia, Age 13: Some friendships have limits https://drfriendtastic.substack.com/p/kids-ask-dr-friendtastic-ep-24-olivia Ep. 26 - Sam, Age 13: Joining a new group of friends https://drfriendtastic.substack.com/p/kids-ask-dr-friendtastic-ep-16-sam Ep. 34 - Chloe, Age 9: Upset by name-calling https://drfriendtastic.substack.com/p/chloe-age-9-upset-by-name-calling Get full access to Dr. Friendtastic for Parents at drfriendtastic.substack.com/subscribe
