What did you do? How did other kids respond?- Why does Dr. Friendtastic emphasize trying to make friends with kids who like to do the same things you like to do?  - Why do you think some kids only want to be friends with the most popular kids? What are some possible problems with this approach to friendship?  - What do you think it means to show that you’re open to friendship? What are some ways to do this? What actions would signal that you’re NOT open to friendship?  - Why is it a good thing to invite someone to get together with you, even if they say no, they can’t because they’re busy? (Hint: What message do you give the other kid with your invitation?) Get full access to Dr. Friendtastic for Parents at drfriendtastic.substack.com/subscribe
