Talking Points

• "When we have a problem with a friend, it's important to talk about how we feel."

• "We can use kind words like 'I feel sad' or 'I don't like that' to express our feelings."

• "Listening to our friend's feelings is also important. We can say 'I hear you' or 'I understand'."

• "If we can't agree, we can ask for help from a grown-up to find a solution together."
