Karen Tay shared a heartfelt approach to teach her daughter about friendship dynamics after her daughter experienced confusion over an inconsistent friend. Tay introduced the concept of "circles of friendship," helping her daughter identify trustworthy friends, temporary acquaintances, and those who don't value her. This method encourages children to protect their emotions, set boundaries, and understand their social interactions. Committed to fostering emotional intelligence, Tay's method resonated with parents who appreciated the importance of teaching healthy friendship dynamics early in life.
"She told me about how a friend had treated her, and her request was for me to arrange a play date with this friend so that she could get closer to her."
"People you can really trust your heart with. There's friends and collaborators who may come and go... but still be able to assess what boundaries you need to put in place."
