And I'm going to go for a run or I'm going to call a friend, you know, modeling both the labeling of how you're feeling, the why behind how you're feeling so that kids don't walk away thinking feelings are something that just happens to them, that they have zero control over and they're victims of their feelings.
We want them to have that sense of agency.
And I think that will be really critical socially, too.
I think a lot of kids are going to be more sensitive.
They're going to perceive that somebody is leaving them out when they're not.
Or there might be a little bit more exclusion and mean behavior because everybody is jockeying to find their place in that hierarchy again after so much time apart.
And so we can also model that empathy for our kids, whether our child is the one leaving others out or they're the ones who are getting targeted.
We can remind them that no one's at their peak.
that we can give people the benefit of the doubt.
We can give them the language to address some of these situations as they come up.
We can use examples from our own friendships to help them sort it out.
