What happened? How did you deal with it? Is there something you would like to do differently next time?- What are some reasons why a friend might not want to talk about a problem?- What does the statement “We can’t force someone to be friends with us” mean? - Why is saying or implying, “I’m good; you’re bad” not a helpful way to deal with conflict? What could you do instead?*** You might also like these podcast episodes:Ep. 1 - Friendship ends over small thing (Naomi, Age 7) https://drfriendtastic.substack.com/p/kids-ask-dr-friendtastic-ep-1 Ep. 129 - Kindest way to break up with a friend (Audrey, Age 9) https://drfriendtastic.substack.com/p/ep129-kindest-way-to-break-up-with-a-friend-audrey-age-9 Ep. 73 - Best friend suddenly stops playing with him (J.J., Age 11)
