23.01.2022 Now this is an interesting idea...

16.01.2022 Teach kids to step away from drama, especially at school. Adolescents are experimenting with who they are and what their social place in the world will be. So,... they have a natural attraction to the social interactions of peers. They are especially attracted to drama. They are learning about power and social dynamics so of course they want to be part of what’s going on. They tend to pick a side; there is a powerful sense of belonging in picking a side. We need to teach them the equal power of not getting involved. The power of the person who: -Walks away -Decides not to send that text -Doesn’t comment on Snapchat -Counts to 5 before responding -Distracts others from a moment of meanness -Chooses to turn on their empathy -Includes instead of excludes If kids could see that power. And if they could show the courage to step away...just imagine. Image source unknown
