How did they interpret that comment?

What was it that they thought the other person meant when they did or said

whatever it was that made them feel rejected.

And then validate their emotional response.

Бор а дифферт перспективи if there is one.

Could it be that when the person said this they were

Trying to make you laugh, trying to make someone else laugh, trying to actually make a friend.

I've had success with kids in validating their perception, but then offering another one and just helping them consider that maybe that thing that they perceived as so hurtful or painful or personal.

Actually

wasn't about them or actually wasn't meant to be unkind.

And that I think has really helped kids think, oh, this adult's not telling me I'm wrong or I'm just too sensitive, but they are giving me alternates for how to perceive something.

And then I think when you practice that with kids over and over, they get better themselves at learning how to consider different ways of interpreting somebody else, which is a a really valuable skill.

I can give you a a real quick example of a something that happened just this week with one of my students.

A second grade student came to me distraught, but also furious that one of their classmates was a liar.

Over and over.

He's a liar.

I hate him.

I'm never playing with again.

He's a liar.
