In this journey, we’re diving into tricky waters that can make personal social interactions feel like a maze. From the schoolyard to the digital realm, these challenges come in all shapes and sizes, testing our resilience and empathy.
First up, we’re tackling bullying – a tough opponent that can really cause mental distress. But we’ve got strategies to spot it, speak up, and stay strong. Then, there’s aggression – whether it’s a friend acting out or a stranger being rude, it’s all about keeping your cool, seeing things from others’ perspectives, and standing your ground.
