[quote=Anonymous]I don’t see diagnosing kids or describing their bad behavior as part of my friendship duties, unless I’m explicitly asked what I think. In fact if I’m explicitly asked something general by a friend like this I’d probably say something like “I love Larla and you so much, it would be hard for me to be impartial. This sounds really stressful, I’m sorry you’re going through it.” Or idk some better version of that, more specific or whatever. Just turn it to whatever is positive and true about the kid and focus on supporting your friend through a very hard moment which is surely very hard for any parent and she is probably acting in good faith even if she is wrong.
