Almost every child struggles socially at some time, in some way. Having an argument with a friend, getting teased, or even trying to find a buddy in a classroom. These are common problems, but they can be very painful. Friendships, even for children, are never about just one thing. Eileen Kennedy-Moore shares research-based practical solutions and plenty of true-to-life examples to help kids make sense of the social order around them.  Screen Cleaning (1:34:34) Jeff Simpson talks about movies and TV helping you find family friendly options.
