Maintaining Friendship in Adolescence
Secondary school can be a【C1】________place for adolescents who don’t have a best friend or a group of trusted friends. Young people will be【C2】________skilled in the art of making genuine friends (and keeping them) if they know【C3】________to be assertive, and optimistic about life, have some basic social skills and have a relationship with a parent/carer that includes honest talk.
Be assertive, not【C4】________
Being assertive can help young people in not only sticking【C5】________for themselves,【C6】________it can also communicate to others a sense of self-assuredness.
An assertive way of speaking and being can make young people【C7】________and more popular with peers.
Assertiveness【C8】________polite but firm talk, eye contact, and controlled behavior. It’s not to be confused with aggression which often takes the form of a raised voice, 【C9】________, put-downs and greedy behaviour.
One way adults can【C10】________assertiveness in young people is to encourage it in the safe environment of the home. Young people can practice assertive language and behaviour【C11】________they explain to siblings that their room is not a public thoroughfare, when they defend their right to use the bathroom by themselves but in a timely way, when they argue they need quiet and time alone to complete homework.
Optimism can lead to success
Grief and tears about friendships are【C12】________in the secondary school years. At some stage, your child is likely to come home either sullen, withdrawn, crying or【C13】________.
They may even experience school refusal,【C14】________is when they refuse, or are reluctant about going to school.
An adolescent who has a positive mindset is more【C15】________to bounce back into the usual routines of friendships. When a young person has a positive mindset, they tend to see setbacks and troubles as【C16】________. They identify them for what they are (specific, time-related issues) rather than for what they are not (global and eternal).
That is to say, positive kids are more likely to identify a specific and reasoned account of friendship troubles ("Sally was mean to me today because she was in a terrible mood") rather than a global and【C17】________account ("Sally is mean, she has always hated me").
You can foster a positive mindset in your child by modelling and encouraging positive self-talk in the home. Expect your child to be looking forward to something each day at school. That might be catching【C18】________with friends, a particular class in school or even an exam or test!
Healthy relationships with adults
Children who have good and healthy relationships with adults are more likely to have good and healthy relationships with their【C19】________. So, it’s important for you to foster a supportive relationship with your child. Try to be an encouraging parent who really listens to your child’s concerns. Your child will not expect you to have all the answers.
Adolescence can be tricky to navigate from a parent’s perspective. Making and maintaining healthy friendships is just one【C20】________of the teenage years. Parental role-modelling, encouragement and seeking support from the school can make this aspect of the adolescent years rewarding and fruitful for many years to come.
