[quote=Anonymous]Depends. If small issue when kids were lower elementary I used it as a teachable moment: -not everyone is going be nice to you - people can say unkind things, but the most important is how you react to it, you know it isn’t true and that’s the most important -sometimes it’s a reminder that we should be kind to others, you know how bad this made you feel don’t make others feel the same way When they were young there were a few teens/ young adults who self-harmed and I wanted to make sure they developed some toughness and learned to decrease the importance of mean comments/commentary. Obviously, there were times when it escalates and you need different interventions. In MS and HS- they know better. There are some kids I would not give any assistance to b/c of the way they treated DC. [/quote]
