From the Publisher
The Teen Years
Middle school is a time of huge cognitive and emotional changes, making friendships complicated and difficult to maintain. A 2015 Psychological Science study found that less than 50% of middle school friendships last a full academic year
Relationship Challenges
Young girls report being bullied 6% more often than young boys, and many of these girls say their friends are their bullies. Studies have found that healthy friendships can result in higher-functioning immune systems, better self-esteem, longer life expectancy overall, stronger emotional regulation skills, improved cognitive function, and more empathy towards others.
Making Moves for the Future
The Child Development Journal found that healthy tween and teen friendships lead to better adult mental health, including lower rates of anxiety and depression later in life.
