We’re back to continue this month’s back-to-school series to help your girl diffuse drama, both at school and beyond.

Tip #1 was all about being a calming presence (without feeling any pressure to say the right thing), and today I am excited to share tip #2 with you!

2. Talk to her about what is true

When you feel ready, speak. Don’t try to excuse or explain the friend’s behavior. Empathize, but remember that, because you weren’t there, you don’t have the whole picture. Instead, guide her gently toward her Father.

There are things in this life that we can control, and there are things we can’t. How the people in our lives treat us is one of those things that can’t be controlled, but we can control our reaction and our approach to resolving conflict.

“A true friend loves at all times…” (Proverbs 17:17) and, regardless of how she’s been treated, encourage her that love, regardless of the effect, is the answer. She may not believe you right away, and that’s okay. You’re her mom, or an adult in her life who cares deeply about her, and it’s your job to tell her the truth.

We're glad to have been a part of your daughter's journey with our second tip. Every challenge she faces can be a steppingstone towards growth.

The journey doesn't end here! Part 3 is on the horizon and promises even more insights to bolster her strength and resilience in the face of life's challenges.
